Nice presentation Dave, However: It would be nice to get the skinny on this coach without having to call Ed. More specific details please.

"Unbelievable" is the tacky SOB paint job. Too bad he didn't re-do the original scheme, esp since he has the corrugated sides which enhance the "Original" horizontal colors.
"Beauty is in the eye of the beholder", of course, but I beheld an unfortunate paint scheme choice. That aside, it is DEFINITELY priced to sell quickly.
PS: Is that a second door on the passenger side and, if so, why?

You're right Gunner... To borrow Bill H's line "I'd like to see a floor plan"

ED,

Could you list out the specifics on this coach and possibly post pictures of the unseen areas e.g. engine, storage compartments, and other views of the interior, etc.

This would help a lot of potential buyers get a better idea of the Barth's rework and current condition. This would likely improve the interest in your coach.
Bill if any one is interested they can email direct medgilmore@AOL.com

Ed Gilmore is a master at woodwork. I remember when he started this job and he kept me up to date as to what he was doing. I have been nothing but impressed by the job he has done.

Here are some more images of his work on this coach..

This is what Ed's coach looked like before the repaint.

This picture was taken at the 2001 winter Olympics.

Then just delete them. Go to the lower right corner of each post that you want to delete/edit and click on the picture that looks like a folder with a pencil eraser attached. In that section you can delete or edit your posting.

Looking at this picture, is that a custom fabricated cover below the front bumper?

Hi Ed, I for one think your coach looks great! SOB on this site means Something Other than Barth, or, more generically, Some Other Brand. Both mean any coach that is not a Barth.

Nice looking garage, Ed. How tall is the door? How much clearance is there?
