'78 FP3 to be parted out?
Herb, Tere and I will pass on the potty. We want to get one that has a larger bowl and around 17" off the ground. I think Robert and Kimberly want it tho. Will advise of the bumper. It's such a big item I think shipping would make it too expensive. Will talk Barthers at the GTG and see if they have any ideas. Good luck

Richard, Got started on it today. Went Barth shopping this past weekend (460 mi north of where I live) so I'm running behind - nothing new for me, just ask Mary Alice. It's supposed to cool down later this week, 96+ here today, so it'll be better working outside. Let me know if there's anything else. Oh yes, my trek was successful. Posted a couple pics on a discussion I started on '89 Regency in the General Discussion Forum - not too proud. Hope to get back up to no cal this weekend to pick her up

Herb, The new coach is absolutely beautiful! Love everything about it. Keep the wiper motors in mind if you start stripping down the elder Barth, which we hope won't happen due to a last minute buyer!

Dan & Suzy, Thanks! Unfortunately no takers for the Senior member, so got going a little on her today. Breaks my heart but her replacement will heal that. Tried the wipers today. Both work great. As soon as I figure out how to get them out I'll get them packed up. Did you want the switches too? I'm going back up to No Cal this weekend to pick up Barth #4 so that'll slow my disassembly down - along with the usual honey do's.

Herb: Good luck with your new Barth. It is indeed a beauty. Perhaps it will someday find its way to Michigan with you guys behind the windshield.

Herb, here's a pic of my switches. Not knowing why the drivers side only works on high, I'd like to replace them both, if yours are compatible.

Here's a shot of the drivers side motor.

Dan, this is the same motor and gear as on the boats in the Commander series of Chris Craft. If you need info on replacements let me know and I will search my data for current equivalents. Our applications are single speed only but I think the difference is in the switch for the most part.

Dan, Got the motors out yesterday and will work on the switches today. They should work with your coach. Will be going north to pick up new Barth this weekend Smiler Hopefully, will get it all boxed up next week and sent to you.

Thanks Herb, Let me know what the tab is, and I'll shoot you a check. I might even get them in time to put them in before the Dega trip. We haven't had much trouble in the 14 years we've been doing it, but it always seems to rain somewhere along the road. Some nice smooth wipers would be a welcome relief.

We are interested in the mirrors. Could you email pics of drivers side & passenger side. Our passenger side is the one we would have to have if one were already taken.
Thanks

Hey Herb
Forget the mirrors. I looked at the pics of yours in the for sale forum and they are different than ours. Thanks anyway.

How much for the front aluminum bumper. I also would be interested in the screen door. Do you have more pictures of your barth?

I'll put your name on my list for the front bumper. Two others have also inquired so when I get the bumpers off I'll offer them to the members, in the order I got the requests, once I get the shipping costs. There are pics in a topic in the For Sale Forum. On the screen door, I've had one request but I'm not sure it will fit their door.
