Upon researching Gene Fisher's site and Kim Week's link to GMCs in movies, I may have found one not yet reported. It is a 1980 movie called Resurrection*. Here is a link to a youtube of the last scene of the movie.

The woman running the service station can't get the filler nozzle in any better than we can! (She is not actually pumping gas.)

It is a terrible copy of the movie but the GMC 26 is there. I will let the smart guys tell us what year and model of the coach. I assume it is a mid-1975 or earlier because the big window is open to the front. But what do I know?

* Resurrection is about a woman who after a near death experience can heal. Not particularly a religious movie, but reactions to her range from some wanting to know the science behind her ability to some thinking she is the returned Christ. She ends up running a rural gas station to avoid the notoriety.

Looks more like a 73 or 74 Painted Desert based on the Orange pinstripes on the side. Hood features a big orange stripe on top and small orange stripe on the bottom. I also believe the PD was the only one with pin stripes. The Canyonlands had the same color scheme but didn't have the pin stripes. They also had the big orange stripe on the bottom and the smaller orange stripe on the top.

Nice find.
