| Arberg: My brother lives in Depew and has acquired an '85 Regency 35 foot Detroit Diesel Pusher. He is in the process of correcting deferred maintenance items and getting ready for summer. If you are new to the Barth Coach I would be happy to hook you up with him and you can see how these fine coaches were built. He knows a lot about mechanic's and may be of help to you.

| Hi Tom
First i would like to say thanks for the offer of hooking me up with your brother and yup Depew is just around the corner from me i am next to the Airport in Cheektowaga. the reason i have been trying to hook up with owner of the bath in canada is i am after buying it from him a few years back i was in a freinds bath and not to coin words they are built like a brick shithouse as we say in the uk i come from the uk moved here in 1998 when i married teresa she is from here hence knowing a freind of a freind who had one and like i say there built to last and its like riding on air when every thing is correct i have not given up hope yet of mr moore getting back to me and me seeing that 1969 bath in my drive but if not will have to keep looking as the saying goes more fish in the sea but i will keep in touch with you if i may about the offer

| That it! He uses the Sportscoach as a donor P-30 (454, TH 400) for his friends. The Barth should be there now if winter is over. I think it snowed there last week.
