1978 GMC 26 Royale Motorhome
Unlike other GMC coaches on the market, this renovated motor home has a bright and white interior, making the inside as modern as the sleek exterior. The Bounds Co-Op Renovation replaced dried and cracked panels and seals, ensuring a weather-proof canvas for the interior update.
