In response to the comment concerning the low FMCA number, when I was 5 (I am 54 now) my dad (who is 87 and owns this Barth)purchased a 1956 Flexy from Harrisburg PA and stripped and converted it to a beautiful coach called the "Rendevous". We went to many FMCA conventions and that bus initially wore the 491 tag! I sold that bus for them in 2005 for $8000 to a man from California. It still ran. My dad did the whole conversion himself by hand and it was gorgeous. He was a pilot in WWII and always maintained everything like it was an airplane. They purchased this Barth in 1994 and took several trips in it out west. Soon after that, my dad started to decline gradually with Alzheimer's and the bus was garaged and maintained until now. Now, it needs a new home and to go have some fun! It truly looks new.

Thank you for posting the historical background information. It is always so interesting to read such stories. I infer that your father is the second owner, but has had the Barth since it was almost new. The part that is sad to read is the

Alzheimer's
. must be heart-wrenching to see your father slowly loose his life, and his identity, that way. Peace be with you.

SOLD....Thank you for all the responses! My parent's 1990 Barth Regency drove out of the driveway with her new owner at the wheel last week, a result of this listing. We are so happy to see it headed for good times again . Congrats to the new owner, and may she serve you well!
