As some of you know, i have been on the hunt for my family's 1975 and 1973 GMC coaches. Well, I found and bought back the 1975! She had gone through 13 years, 4 owners and a grand total of only 684 miles! Hell, she was 250 miles away from where she was sold in Alvin and STILL had the SAME tires on her we had when we sold her.
But enough about the 1975 coach, she is undergoing restoration at the moment.
Im still searching for the 1973. My brother, currently a Marine and Camp Pendleton, saw my success and begged me to continue my search for the 1973 coach, which grandma and pops loved so dearly. Well I got a little help from a few anonymous GMC lovers and got a lead, contacted the person who holds the title annnddd..... he sold it.
He doesnt know to whom, only that it was in "Houston", and that it was running at the time. He MIGHT have some paperwork so maybe he has a name somewhere?
Grandmas name was Kling and the person she sold it to was Floyd, but I need to go beyond that.
Anyway, the coach was sold in the Channelview area and I saw it a few times in Crosby Texas several years ago at a vehicle repair place.
Any Houston GMCr's seen her? here are photos of her. If you find her then pin my number to her door and tell the owners im still desperately searching for her! 281-733-9925

I hope some of the Texas members will take the time to call around and see if they can help Sarah find this coach. Billy Massey and some other folks helped with her parents GMC and it is now under restoration instead of moldering in a storage lot.
