...sitting unloved in the back row of a local RV dealership, the RV Warehouse in Cookstown ON.
Well not totally unloved but ignored, for sure.
The grandfather of the parts mgr. that showed it to me has a GMC and is a member of the Heritage Cruisers, Eric Stovold.
This one was taken in as a trade-in and of course, there were, 'plans,' to update it, but here it sits:
TZE166V100245
'75 or '76 [I've not committed how to tell by the VIN to memory] has some updates like Ramco mirrors, but is largely original.
will post the couple of pics I took once I download 'em from the phone.

It's a 76, GM floorplan # 245 off the line in 76. Probably fitted with a Power Level air ride and also has the same early style window frames you have. Has a composite floor (aluminum, foam, wood), has the particle board cabinets.
So whats gonna happen to it?
Jim

To add to the orphan collection.
When driving to International via Crater of Diamonds State Park, flying fast on II-20, West of Monroe, LA, about exit 107, North side of Interstate, there is a White 26' GMC parked in either an industrial park or storage yard.
Did not stop, late in the evening.

Tom, I saw that one twice. My brother was driving and I hated to ask him to stop.
