Hello.

I recently purchased a 1965 Barth TT. 19 footer. I've been active on other forums before, but someone pointed me over here considering the fact that my trailer is a Barth.







Pictures

It's going to be a work in progress and I have many questions and a lot of wonder about what to do with this thing. I feel its got potential and I intend to use it a lot and fix it up nicely. The trailer currently resides full time at an RV park and I am there some days out of the week.

My long term project goals and ideas include updating/redoing/customizing the interior, polishing the exterior, installing an awning, the list goes on. This trailer is basically my back up living space. I am currently in the midst of relationship issues with my wife and living situation. I opted for a cheap living arrangement and picked this trailer up for $1500.

My current to do list:

Needs flooring
Dometic fridge needs fixing or replacement
Needs a new toilet
Electrical needs diagnosing
Plumbing has a small leak near the main H20 tank
Need to update the propane tanks

Anyway, hello to everyone here. I guess I'll see you around...

Thanks!

Welcome to the forums - I've added the original images to your initial post.

If you don't mind could you take a few more pics - looking for the ones seen in these photos

This is know as your data tag number. It tells us the year, month, length and sequential build number of your trailer.
