With only 12 days before ChristmasMidwest GTG we have decided to paint and polish our '77 Barth! Thought we would show everyone the work as we progress. We are looking forward to South Haven, and having all this work done!


Jeff putting on the primer.


After the paint and a generous strip of Bedliner.



Trying out our New Cyclo polisher.

We will be posting more within the next 10 days or so as we get closer to the GTG Smiler

Jeff & Joy - Your coach looks just great. And the polished surfaces really make the graphic scheme pop. The contrast between the black paint, flat finish aluminum sides and high reflection upper alum (and rear) surfaces is very smart. Great visual impact - nice straight graphic design lines compliment the profile of the coach. A fine example of the "less is more" school of design.
