GMC turned 100 years old on Feb.1, 2012.

Indianpolis Star had an article covering some of the highlights of the GMC Truck division and included a photo of a 1973 GMC Motorhome. The article appeared in the Feb 4 ( pre Super Bow ) issue.

Here is a link for some other info on the Star's website and the photo that appeared in the paper.

interesting thing about that picture. It is a mirror image. Someone got the negative upside down when it was put on paper.

Makes for a perfect european right hand drive, Even the door on the curb side, and the wipers good for the driver LOL

It is a mirror image of a pre production GMC, the interesting thing is that GM reversed it, not the paper. The photo I have is from the GM photo archives and is reversed as well.

I believe Rob might be looking for one like this :^)
