Just acquired this 1978 here in Texas. The VIN is TZE368V100652. Anyone with any history on this coach, please post and let me know what I actually have here. It's a center kitchen with a dry bath.

It belonged to a GMC Classics Club member of Tyler, Texas for many years. Said to have been very nice once.

For the purpose of locating and keeping track of all Classic GMC Motorhomes.
Please fill out and submit the online form at www.gmcmhregistry.com/contact/form.html
(There are currently over 9,080 GMCs accounted for)

Find the VIN tag is on the firewall behind the passenger side hood.
Or on the inner glove box door tag.
Or on the title.

* Note about the Build Date of your GMC: From the decal on the inside of the glove box door - look for a number on the top line just left of center, similar to "032174". This example indicates the build date as March 21st, 1974. *

I'll reply with history I know about your GMC.

Thank you

Welcome! Nice coach, we need more pics though! 😉

So what do you figure it needs to be brought back to service?

Mine is ...650, just two units apart!!!! I hope the walnut cabinets are still there in yours. They may need some TLC - I used Howard's Feed n Wax on the bare wood - brought it back from chalky beige to like new!!! I modified the cabinets forward of the bedroom to accommodate a King-size spacefoam mattress topper and sleeping fore-and-aft. And converted the passenger-side closet into a pull-out kitchen pantry. Have FUN!!! Love to see more pics of your "new" toy!
