Don Briskey33' Barth with 460 Ford pusher on Oshkosh chassis
This Barth was mentioned to be on Craig'slist. I talked with owner's son and got some date,but as someone new to Barth's I am not certain what model and the son was no help. I think this coach would be a regal. Any comments on the 460 gas pusher with Allison trans.? Any comments on the chassis? Does have 22.5 " tires, levelers and Onan generator. Asking $13k with 51k miles. Seems like a good price. Thanks Don Briskey

Ed ChevalierThis might make a great candidate for a diesel repower in the future. Banks has been working on the Duramax 6.6 for a little extra grunt. Gale has built a twin turbo producing 785hp and 1300ftlbs. of torque. It was able to propel the suburban Gorilla weighing in at around 20,000 lbs. to 78mph on the entrance ramp of the freeway.
