I'm sure Bill Bryant knows all about this, but I think it's the first time
I've heard of it:

Interesting.

I can see why they didn’t produce it—it lacked any styling to distinguish
it from conventional box-on-frame motorhomes.

But I wonder if that model was actually made in 1972. GM changed body
shapes between divisions in that period, but not by that much. Why tool up
for a different shape? That would just undermine the sales of both models.

Rick “thinking Chevy could have sold the same body for utility vehicles and
let GMC brand those for recreational uses, or vice versa” Denney
