Hello, Danny Anderson here. Been a member for awhile lurking around looking at info on going thru/upgrading a 78 we got from a friend. Cost was free. Ran and drove. Problem was the rats got too it and took a major cleanout just to drive it. Roof leaked at the front vent. Started to tear out the interior to rebuild the floor plan from scratch as well as repower with a 8.1L/4L80E combo. Problem is the rat infestation went too far. Would need to tear out the floors and start over. Still has a lot of good parts. If ok I will list it in the sale section, Currently looking at other barths as I like the style(I'm old school).

Welcome Danny. Congrats on the Barth. Just a suggestion - if you don't want to go through the headache of rebuilding your Barth,try selling it complete before you part it out. That's not a lot of fun either. You never know, you may find someone who is a glutton for punishment and would give you a fair price for the coach.

Would rather sell it whole. If some one would like to tow it off I would make them a killer deal. Has no engine or trans and the interior has been gutted for overhaul. Still has air conditioners and they work as well as the 12 volt converters. Will list it in the for sale section when in get to a reg computer to add pics.
