Long story short. Purchased some land a few years back, and it had two old trailers on it. One is a Barth Continental. Trying to find information on it led me here, but I need to know anything I can about this trailer. It's in pretty decent shape, but does need to be gone through. Any thoughts on this would be appreciated.

In addition to this site, you might try:

They're a national organization, with the membership involved in the restoration & use of vintage trailers....Their site includes a forum that might lead you to some info......

The Barth Continental was top-of-th-line in its day. We bought our first RV in 1969. The dealer also sold Barths for about 4 times what our first rig cost. Definitely above my pay grade then, but it was what first turned me on to Barths.

If you want to restore it as a labor of love, have the best trailer made in its day, still equal or better in basic construction to today's best, and a wonderful magnet for conversations in RV parks, go for it, but don't expect to make money on it.
