Giday,
Well I did some internet research. Located one GMC in the South island. Here is the result
Roger,

Are you the Roger Hallinan that has or had a GMC motorhome? A painted Desert? The GMC boys in the states are trying to track them all and I have your name (Roger Hallinan, Karatane OH) from the master list. If so I would love to hear from you. I am a kiwi that has lived in Alberta for 40 odd years, a GMC owner, and presently in NZ for a couple of years. Peter Garry AAA RIBA ANZIA Retired Architect

Hello Peter,

You have a correct contact however the GMC was my brother's. Unfortunately it was totally destroyed in a property fire some 2 or 3 years ago. The insurance company dumped the remains I understand. Regards, Roger

I’ll Email Roger Hallinan and get some more information about his brother and his GMC. Then I’ll try the other end of NZ where the other GMC was supposed to be.

It probably goes without saying that it would be good to get the TZE number on that unfortunate GMC motorhome for the records.

Was the Halinan coach the one in this photo in Christchurch?
I sent an email to the Brick Works pub advertised on the sign in the photo to see if they had any information on the coach.

Great detective work.

I found this link to the American RV Club of NZ newsletter.
It includes the email and phone number of the editor Rob Wallace.

I don't want to duplicate/confuse any communications so will leave it to one of you to make contact with Mr Wallace to ask if they have any GMC
ownermembers.

Eager to hear any result
