Just purchased an 85 Barth. It is 33 ft with a tandem axle. It is a wonderful buy.

We purchased it at Sullivan RV in Decatur. Just trying to get all the bugs out of it now so we can start traveling by spring.

We are learning that there are several Barth's in our area. There is also another in our town but we don't know the owner. I guess living so close to where they were made keeps them close. We will have to meet sometime.

Hello everyone. We are New Barth Owners and new to this site as well. We were unsure where to start or how to properly introduce ourselves. We recently purchased an 84 Barth Regency 35RD-B and we didn't receive any manuals for operating any systems. Our Barth had been in storage for an excess of 10 years, and, we would appreciate any help or insight anyone might have? We absolutely love our Barth and have many plans for it!
Thank you. Jerry & Barbara

Welcome to the Forums!

Browsing the posts under Tech Talk and Improvements and Upgrades will yield a lot of info.

There are kits to improve the brakes and steering, and the DD 8.2L engine must NOT EVER be overheated.

These early Regencies are on MCC chasses, and are known for the smooth ride.
