1976 30 foot Barth. 454 Chevy, new waterpump and fuel pump. Runs and drives, all appliances are working except for the central heat. I am currently asking $3500 or best offer, although I really think I would rather restore it than sell it. Make offer, life's rough right now!

I looked up the phone number and it looks to be about 30 miles from me....IF SOMEONE IS VERY SERIOUS about buying the coach, I'll help them out. You go ahead and call and talk to the owner, look at more pics and if you're still serious, I'll go up, drive it and look it over and give you a report....Kive

To anyone interested I will gladly tell you all I know. I have only owned the barth for a little over a month, and truly do not want to sell it, It is the second barth I had tried to buy, found it on craigs, drove it home and started restorations. It has roof leaks, air bags are blown, at least 4 tires need replaced, if not all 10. Yes that is tag axle. I would much rather restore it than sell it. I am a mechanic by trade, I bought a project and I knew it. Please talk me out of selling it!!!!!

Anyway, until I bought it this barth had not run since 1996. Yes it needs alot!!!

I tried to post 3 pictures on my original post. I had some better shots. I guess I messed up somewhere and only one of them showed up on photo bucket.

Ive never seen duals on the tag axle either. There are several things I have never seen on this beauty. I hope someone on here can help. I have just about talked myself out of selling it!

They have a hump on the roof too. Looks real similar, all of the traditional trade marks of a vintage Barth. What a Beauty!

My Neway tag axle manual shows duals on tag axles almost the same as mine.

Drew, I've owned four motor homes. A '99 Trek, a '95 Dynasty, a '91 Calista Class C, and my Barth. The only one I didn't regret selling was the Calista because it had a hole in the roof and rotten wood. I will never sell the Barth. I'll leave it to the kids. DONT SELL IT
