Not many of these overhere, but somehow this one ended up in southern Germany - most likely when new.

Now - after a partial restoration and upgrade - it will be pulling my trailer with my 29 AV8 roadster or my 65 Mustang race car to various events during the summer .......

Funny how happy one can get just by buying a old used POS car :rofl:biggrin

For those not knowing what this is, it´s the "legendary" 1973 GMC Motorhome, Buick Riviera 455 cui front wheel drive drivetrain, air suspension, all sorts of cool camping gadgets :biggrin

Great Toter!

btw - there's a very big demand in the U.S. for these GMC homes.

there is one of those about 6 miles from my house that is baby blue.

It's the Scooby Doo Mystery Machine.

Being a front wheel drive, how long do the front tires last?

If you have daughters of a certain age, you'll know it's also the Barbie Doll Motor Home!

Very cool. I'm sure it's a sight in Denmark pulling your hotrod. They probably think it's a Yank invasion.
