From cortezcoach.com
" In 1970, Clark Forklift sold the Motorhome division to Alco-Standard (Kent Industries), in Kent, Ohio. Some units were apparently produced in 1970 but were rejected by the chief inspector. In 1971, the first “Kent” Cortezes ready to be sold were produced. They sported an Oldsmobile Toronado front wheel drive 3 speed automatic transmission with an Olds 455ci engine. Length was extended to 21 feet, and a passenger door was re-introduced. 1 971 and 72 models could be had with either a side or rear door."

It looks like a Champion or a Concord but I would bet it is a Road
House. I suspect the front air dam was an option.
Clark Cortez' were nicer looking boxes than this beauty! LOL

When I was in the earliest stages of looking for a motorhome, I saw an ad for a front wheel drive motorhome, powered by an Olds 455. Knowing NOTHING, at that point, about GMCs, other than the fact that they were front wheel drive and had a 455 in them, I went and looked at it. It turned out to be a Clark Cortez. It was BEYOND butt ugly! I made a little more of an effort to educate myself about GMCs after that experience.

It had nothing to do with cursing; ADOLPH HITLER and his cronies are not particularly popular with people of German descent and even
less so with Jewish people!

i am sorry rob i thought it was another one with the same video, that did not have the curse words.
I am sorry i did not watch it and it is different than the one that i thought it was. m.
My point is this is one of the best cameras to use for making videos, the last one of these
did not have curse words in it. sorry, i did not watch it before it was posted, the last one with
cannon 5dmark2 did not have it.

Just for the record, I believe the video is simply
pirated from a movie about Hitler. This one is NOT
the only one I have seen with new words added to
promote or make fun of some product.
This one is nowhere nearly as funny as another
one I have seen. That one MAY have been about
comparing the BMW motorcycles unfavorably to
Honda bikes and I considered it hilarious!
