It is number 3158. We are very happy to have this, and I will post pictures of it as soon as I can. It needs some work, but what doesn't? Has less than 50K miles, and will suit our needs perfectly. We have a complete Barth book, including blueprints, so that will be a huge help. This is our first RV, and we are so happy to have found what we wanted. We will be asking a lot of questions, I know.

Here it is. We found it on this site, and the nice young man delivered it today from VA. Drove all night. Does anyone know what type it is? I have not found anything yet other than Barth and coach #3158. We have the book.

You have a commercial Barth that has been converted to a M.H. From pictures of previous post it looks like a nice conversion. 85 Tag Axle

Exterior looks like a twin to the Command Center.





Your paint is much better looking than mine. Smiler

Mary, maybe they are long-lost cousins.

Kevin, we have already bookmarked that, and are reading it stem to stern.

We have found a mechanic who comes highly recommended to give the coach a very thorough first check. We want him to give us a comprehensive list of things that must be done right now, things that need to be done soon, and things that can be done when we get around to it.

Inside, there is wood parquet flooring. It is in good shape, so we will probably keep it, give it a really good sanding and then finish with something that will be easy to take care of. The blocks are still tight to the floor and there aren't any gaps that we've seen. We will change out the lino in the back that is ready to be changed.

We will need to move it to the storage place tomorrow, as we have an HOA rule that we may only keep a coach in the drive for two days.

Need to hunt down some parts from the FlexSteel site. just in case. The driver's chair does not like to swivel at all, so we are going to get under there and see what we need to do. Hoping just a bit of TLC is all that is needed.
