VIN: TZE167V102042
Odometer: 00000 (new speedo installed)
Engine: 455cid V8
Trans.: 3-spd Auto transaxle (TH425, FWD)
The GMC Motorhome was produced for model years 1973-1978 by the GMC Truck & Motor Division. They were the only "complete" motorhome built by a major auto manufacturer and came in 23 and 26 foot lengths. The entire vehicle was designed, engineered, and built by GMC with the front-wheel drive transaxle configuration being lifted from the Eldorado and Toronado cars, also produced by General Motors divisions. Through six model years, there were only 12,921 GMC Motorhomes produced. There are more than 8000 listed in an international registry, and estimates suggest only 3000-4000 original production vehicles are still in running condition.
This 1976 GMC Motorhome remains in running condition. While it does need a little tlc, it runs and drives well and is a great foundation for a quick revamp or a complete restoration. The engine starts and runs, and the transmission operates through all gears to power the big shell down the road.
The exterior is solid and shows well for almost 50 years old. Access panels for the Onan generator and propane tanks function properly, as do all the smaller access panels for water, AC power, holding tank, heater, fuel, etc.
The interior was in the process of being remodeled when the owner decided it was one of too many projects he needed to clear from his list. With that said, the bath and rear bed area are whole; it's only the front "living" section that was being redone. That means there's an opportunity for a new owner to return it to stock or put their own creative touch in place. Many parts come with the package, including new flooring. It is a canvas waiting for an artist.
