Ran into this Barth at Sebring last week and the owners have it up for sale. Gave them this website and told them to post it here.
Here is a pic.

The picture looks like this is a pusher. I ran into a rear engine 460 Oskosh a few years ago but it was more like 32'. There's also been a good bit of talk about one that seems to go back and forth across the country in between engine overhauls. If it's a rear engine 460, I would also think it's a Regency.

Looking at the radius of the roof line, the number of nuts on the rim and the tire size... you might be right.

A gas powered Regency??? That's a Data Tag we really need. Would Barth really build anything?

Someone here has a 460 pusher, IIRC.

I think we might be confused about Ray's post. The picture is not a 1990 28' Barth - Oshkosh chassis with 460 Ford . The picture is a 1987 Barth Regency pusher. Ray's coach is a 1990 28' Barth - Oshkosh chassis with 460 Ford.

See it here or there are two of them with the same paint job.

Yeah, sure looks like the same. But to clarify, there is someone on the forums with a 460 pusher, in CA, IIRC.
