I stumbled across this site and was interested in the GMC shown at the top of this site.

http://www.bestclassa.com/upgrades/Automatic_Fire_Extinguishers_in_Motorhomes/

I would be interested in more pictures and whoever did the body work. It looks like a nice sleek design.

Not sure where the turn signals ended up.

Thanks.

That front end is every bit as ugly as the Camaro it mimics.....

Mike,

There is something out there like that. I can't remember who or where that coach came from.


I think that particular picture is a photoshop of the actual GMC, but it is similar?? there was some discussion on this on facebook I do believe a while back, you might want to search there. for camaro. There is another owner doing a major front end rebuild out there that is taking from the camaro look as well.


you around in two weeks? I might be through toledo on the 12th or 13th. would love to see how you are coming on your coach.

I think this is *another* photoshop'd version of the same coach (but the photoshop may just be the stripes - the front end looks like it might be part of the coach):

But - I definitely fall into the category that it's hard to improve on the original. I have yet to see a face lifted GMC that I'd consider driving…
