1987 Barth Regency Motor Coach - $15000 (Prairie,Ms)

http://northmiss.craigslist.org/rvs/4605630152.html

I don't think there is room in the BR for TWO FULL size (54") beds. I'm thinking they are twins.
The market for a class A with twins is a small segment. I wouldn't mind so much, nor do I mind the decor.
If I understand correctly, the DD 8.2 is only rated 210hp vs 300hp for a Cummins 8.3. So, would this be even more lethargic than the 190hp Breakaway I had?
It clearly is more suitable for spending a month or so in during the Winter, down South someplace. After the short trips I have done in the class B, I think it is well suited for exactly that -- trips of short duration.

The Picture of the data tag does not fit in the Regency numbering scheme. I think Barth offered a rear engine diesel Regal in 1987.

This fits the Regal SE for the 86 model year. 6" radius roof, built on RPI chassis. I would have the engine checked out before considering this one. The data tag shows a 4/86 build date. Depending on sales date it could be title as a 1987. This is about the last built RPI chassis. About 1987 and after they started building Regals on Spartans chassis with the 5.9. With 19.5" wheels That sorta morphed into the Breakaway.

Got that right. I didn't know about the IPR chassis!

It sure looks like a Regal but the data tag says Regency... another Barth orphan?

It looks alot like my 1985 Regency and with the DD engine and MCC chassis I would say it is a Regency however???

There are some differences (it's a Barth so that is common) mine has five "bay" doors along the right bottom side, the one pictured has four.
My dash is almost the same and my bedroom is almost the same (yes! those are twin beds)however the kitchen and living area seems smaller as does several other areas. It also appears to be shorter than mine which is 35'.

One thing to note if it is a new DD engine it would be rated at 230HP not 210HP. It would also be a better engine then the old 210HP which was one you had watch closely for overheating which could almost insantly destroy itself.

MCC chassis do have four wheel independent suspension, four wheel disc brakes (air over hydraulics).

Jim, I use the data tag information when trying to determine the different models. The tag on your coach is 8406-0041-35RD-A. Definitely a Regency tag number. The tag number on the advertised coach is 8604-3315-32DFF2. The Highest sequenced number we have for a known Regency is 0168. A couple were built after Barth RSV took over ownership in 1995.

Yes, This Regal SE coach is 32' built on MCC(RPI-Regency Products Industries)Chassis. 8.2 D.D. should have the upgraded head bolts. 3 floor plans were available, FP1-rear queen, FP2-rear twins(this one) and FP-3 rear bath-center twins.
