What's my Barth?
 Login now/Join our community
 
posted
I've had a 1977 since 1999. I've driven it from CA to Florida from then to 1005, most of the time pulling my little car to a track, staying at the track. I remember those days fondly. My daughter took it to the Bonaroo festival in 2007. I just had the brakes and front end aligned. I could leave today and drive back to CA.

Recently I decided to sell it to help finance my daughter's wedding. I discovered I don't know what model it is. How can I price it if I don't know what I have? I looked through the binder that came with it but nowhere does it say what model it is. It's 28 ft long bumper to bumper. Can anyone help?

Barth didn't start naming models until the early 80s.

That explains it. Thanks Rusty.

I'm planning to fix the generator before putting it up for sale. Everything else works fine. What's a reasonable asking price?

If you post the data tag info, we might be able to match it. Because Barth didn't include the bumpers in the length, yours may be a 27' - but the data tag (not the VIN) will reveal.

Pricing a used coach is best done by searching the For Sale, Sold, and Sighting of this forum. Condition, Mileage, and how Quick you want to sell, along with age of tires. For your year I would say $5,000 + or - $3,000.

Rusty, would this S77052219MC27S3 be Sparkman's data tag?

Probably - Barth didn't use complete year of build until later, AFAIK.
