In a few words...
This is a rare motorhome in hard to find condition. Dependable, enjoyable, confortable, vintage style. Sure brings out a lot of curiosity everywhere you go because we don't see many of these anymore. There is a club for Barth's in USA (www.barthmobile.com). This 22 footer sure has the genuine look of the typical Barth. I am selling on a consignment for a nice local couple. They told me it runs and drives smoothly, no issues.

I did put many pictures so you can judge the condition for yourself... If you need more details, feel free to contact me at: Eric (418) 877-9528 (E.S.T.)

Crown emblem ? Monarch? Hhmmmm

I saw a smaller version of that crown on a mid-'80s Royale gasser.

However the Barth brochure for the Royale just has the Barth logo above the grill.

I'm bidding on it.

Why?

You never know. Got to keep out of the bars somehow.

Kevin, you are right about "Uncle Carl" but since he can't afford this one he just helps me keep Flintstonemobile running (along with others on this site). I thank all of them for what they do for me.

There are sure a lot of Barthmobiles for sale at the present time, leaving a BaRTH purveyor a good choice to get a handsome deal.

this one not withstanding

You know, it's very nice and it is heartening to see that someone took good care of it and actually made it better than it was new, in some respects. There don't seem to be many folks out there that do that anymore. And I suppose there's a narrow market if there was something like a 'collector of old motor homes'. This one might be a nice addition to the Motor Home Hall of Fame or whatever it's called, up in Indiana.
