Vehicle description
Thanks for stopping by to take a look at our 1977 Palm Beach GMC Motorhome. This lovely coach has been prepared to grace American roads without ever actually getting out very much at all. Clocking just over 37000 miles in over 40 years, she has been pampered!
I’ll go through what I know and am happy to answer questions. I have looked at a number of these GMC’s and they seem to fall into 3 categories: Show Queen, They are expensive and rare Loved, These were enjoyed and maintained to a high quality standard. Neglected, They are often stored outside for decades and in need of tens of thousands of dollars worth of repairs just to be roadworthy.
The Show Queens are still rare, Loved coaches are few and far between and the vast majority fit the neglected category.
I would put this Palm Beach well into the Loved category with thoughtful options that show knowledge of years of motorhome travels. I can see that regular maintenance has been done and one of the most important factors is that I’d bet this girl lived inside a nice warm garage or warehouse (like she does now). She just doesn’t seem to show the wear of an outside life.
Exterior.
26’ side bath model. In GMC floor plan lingo it’s a 26-7 with the full rear Bed. AKA, the one everyone wants. Diamond White Pearl paint with Black accents and a Burgundy stripe set this GMC apart as a looker. Color matched Grill, headlamp doors TWO Zip Dee Awnings in excellent condition. Powerlift helpers are on the main awning. No accident damage Air Deflectors at the driver and passenger windows (for buffet free cruising) Remote controlled Power rear view mirrors (typical today and invaluable on a motorhome!) Skid plate/brush guard (prevents damage in those rougher campsites) Front and Rear Fender Flares with T skirts. Front and Rear anti Sway bars Quad Air Ride system with compressor upgrade Ragusa Chrome engine vents New Goodyear Radial tires Nice glass throughout. Folding Ragusa entry step Lighted GMC entry handle Porch light Deadbolt on entry door (smart!) Quality heavy duty screen door Auxiliary back up light Updated Tail light lenses Smart door latches and lights for generator, propane and shore power Quick fill Schrader valves mounted outboard for Air Ride Nice Chrome bumpers New rooftop clearance lenses and lighting Aluminum Ladder and roof rail option Large locking Storage box King/jack powered TV antenna Frame mounted hidden Class IV hitch. Not a light weight bumper mount. This one is installed to the frame and has a hard mounted wiring pigtail for your trailer or tow behind. Remove the hitch and ball, install the bumper plug and the hitch is hidden away.
