Great to see specialists so passionate about their work.

There was another US company that built & sold motor homes from their Detroit plant. They started in 1963 to 1985. It was the Dodge Travco Motor Home.

would not expect the facts. Thanks for sharing. I have found you can transaxle the cadillac FWD diesel, and the 6.5 to the old 455 transaxle in this motorhome. Amazing history. I personally like the winnebago on the truck frames...gm/ford/dodge motors .they are not bankrupt or whatever it is that guy said. you can even rebuild an old travco with dodge etc etc. if it has the big 3, you can keep it going with ingenuity and lots of new parts.

I love this video. It is really nice to see people out there who are preserving and supporting a piece of automotive history for future generations. I also own a vintage RV; a 1984 Fleetwood Pace Arrow Eleganza, and I can appreciate the responsibilities which comes with owning and maintaining these classic machines. It is definitely not for everyone but for the people who do own them they are irreplaceable.

We almost purchased one when the Oldsmobile dealer in Ft. Lauderdale unveiled them in '73. We now live in Okeechobee and have been by the shop there and looking at what Jeff has!

Thank you very much these were very helpful

As a guy from Europe, I can only dream of seing one of these in person one day

This is my dream RV, a GMC.

I love the steering wheel on the original Palm Beach GMC Motorhome. Very nice. 🙂

Excellent information! Take care not to talk OVER the person just after you asked a question.

Amazing video!! I want one so bad!

So you got to know that these things were built to last respective to the body. Most Motor homes of that era have had their roofs replaced by now, if they survived at all. I think the Travco, GMC and I think there was one other that had the fiberglass roof/body designs that seems to hold off the elements better than the others. My 72 Winnebago had an aluminum roof that pitted from the inside do to the glue they used....had pin holes everywhere...replaced in in the early 80's.

On my 77 palm beach it had an original window sticker price of $ 66,000. Its been a few years since I've seen it and now I can't find it but it was bought from Ackerman Buick GMC in Saint Louis Mo

I had a couple come up to me at MGMGMC, a renowned GMC shop in SoCal, headed by Miguel Mendez, THE GMC guru. This couple came by looked at my coach and sniffed; "Well... it's not a GMC". I responded;" No, indeed. There can only be ONE #1''. You see, Revcon asked for 60 Toronado stub frames a month which stirred GMC to play catch up and start their motorhome project fully two years after John Hall began Revcon production. I own a very early Revcon (71-0004), designed by the stepson of Wally Byam (yes, that Wally Byam) and the very first to design and produce a Toronado FWD motorhome. Sorry, but Revcons while using the very same drive train, are more durable, aren't as susceptible to rot. GMCs can sag from wood structure getting wet, then entry doors get sticky. Just saying. Revcons are all aluminum, weigh less and just don't rot away They don't require many thousands of dollars to rehab basic structural components. Like GMC, all engine, trans, brake and other things are readily available.

If only there were places like this all over the USA, where owners could take their Motorhomes for service, maintenance, and possibly upgrades. I'm from Washington state, nowhere near Florida.

I'd buy a GMC Motorhome if I had someone to share the travel experience.

I want one so bad😳🤞🙏

The guy doing the interview should have said. Give us a tour. And Kept quite from then on.

If these things were so "far ahead of their time", why wasn't this superior design concept adopted in future times?

Does this place have a website? Or at least a phone number? You should add that to the video information.

I find them way more attractive than the Winnebago of the same decade, and even more attractive than anything produced today.

I've always wondered where Cliff Claven went after Cheers

Nice honestly

Honestly great video, but ya did sorta cut in on the guy several times as hes talking ..but if he didnt mind, we shouldnt mind, cool vid.

Is this the RV from the movie stripes?

Who is interviewing whom hŕre?

Are all those RV's in the for sale or are those customers RV waiting to get rebuilt?

There's one of these in Norway now? Lmao.

Lol, 2000 miles? Not sure he understands how big this country is. Unless he means that most his customers come from Alaska and south America.

Cool video. However, I want to hear the other people talk, not hear you go "OK", "OK" , "UH HUH" and talk over them the whole time.

Looking for a 23ft

Dodg put out a motor home.

I found the video you were looking for: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/q9ZopNqbsr2nnoE.html The suspension test can be seen at 3:30

Great video of a great motorhome, but the interviewer talks too much, not letting the gentleman answer the questions! Next time you do a video like this ask a question and then shut up and let the person answer!

Can they convert the engine to a diesel pusher?

horrible camera work im dizzy
