The seller offers for sale a 1977 GMC Birchwood motorhome with automatic transmission and a 7.4-litre V8 petrol engine. This Dutch-delivered classic has an interesting history, having originally belonged to a well-known Dutch motorcycle racer. It has since had only two further owners. The vehicle features a complete camper setup with four sleeping spaces, a fabric interior, and LPG capability for economical travel. The paint remains tidy and presentable for its age, while the interior shows light wear consistent with careful use. The mechanical condition is solid, with smooth gear changes and no smoke, noise, or starting issues. The air suspension and lighting have been repaired, and new brakes were recently fitted. The Birchwood is ready for its next adventure once the new inspection is completed.
Equipped with, among other things, a two-wheeler rack, a retractable awning, air conditioning, a roof box and a step at the rear.
The GMC Birchwood motorhome represents the peak of 1970s American RV engineering, combining comfort, power, and timeless style. Built on a GMC chassis with front-wheel drive, it offered a lower centre of gravity and better handling than most motorhomes of its era. Its large V8 engine provided effortless cruising power, while the spacious and luxurious interior made it ideal for long-distance travel. Today, these classic GMC motorhomes are highly regarded for their design and collectability, offering a blend of nostalgia and practicality.
