Hi all,
I am selling my 1981 Barth Euro as I just do not have time for it. I bought this from my father-in-laws estate with plans to bring it back to it's former glory but I just do not have the time for it and I can't stand seeing this coach just sit. I need to find out how much it is worth but cannot find anything on values for it. It all there but just needs TLC and some mechanical work like brake master cylinder. The coach runs good and only has 54767 miles on it. If someone could point me in the right directon on what the value might be I would certainly apprecaite it.

Thank you in advance

P.S I posted pictures in the gallery so you can see what I am talking about

Hi Frank, the book is $3900-5000.00.

Hi Dave,
thank you for responding so quickly. That's an amazing price they really lost their value. I still have the original dealer sales sheet and this thing was EXPENSIVE for 1981.

Thanks again....

I absolutely agree, the last few years have not been kind to vintage coaches. This includes Airstreams and such.

Where is the "postable" picture gallery being referred to in the first post?

its listed in gen discussion..same title 1981 30' barth euro just look a little farther

Breaks my heart to think this pretty old glassnose is only worth 4 or 5 grand. One thing I have learned in the process of making my Euro roadworthy again is that everything is expensive. New brakes, power steering pump, fridge, tires, etc. I do agree that if it is just sitting it should be sold asap, hopefully to someone who will appreciate what they have and bring her back to what she should be. This doesn't necessarally mean spending thousands to make her perfect, just some serious time and parts to make her a truly roadworthy vehicle that you can enjoy every time you make her sing. Good luck finding a buyer, if I was in the market I'd check this one out for sure.

We're sort of interested in something a little bigger than our 28' Regal, with more storage underneath. I don't know anything about the Euro. Would somebody be kind enough to educate me? It looks like an all fiberglass unit. Is it on a P30 chasis with a 454? Bath arangement? Storage underneath? Thanks
Jim and Tere

The Euro is basically a Regal, only the nosecone is fiberglass and a bit streamlined. It is my understanding that they were designed for the European market, and many if not most were shipped overseas. The construction of the rest of the coach is the same quality aluminum as the other Barths, and the interior is identicle. My 28 has twins in the center and a rear bath. It's on a P30 with a 454. Others may be able to add to this and I know there are numerous pix of several Euros including mine in the archives.

Danny, how do I pull up these "archives"?
Thanks
Jim

Click on the little 'find' square at the top of the page and enter Euro in the box and hit go. There's a ton of info here.

Danny, I read some of the stuff on the Euro, and it's pretty interesting. One of the posts indicated it was built in Europe. That's a "tongue in cheek" comment, isn't it? Would the 30' be able to be traced back to some build date in the US? Do you have any idea of the layout of this coach? Thanks for your help

Frank, where are you located? I looked in the gallery and didn't find anything there. Is it somewhere in the archives? Under what name?

My Bastille Day post of 2004 was indeed tongue in cheek. Some of it was not quite true.

Some was.
