An awesome coach needs a new home - 1978 GMC Royale

15 years ago I delivered this coach after 11 months restoration back to its original owner…. In fact this coach has never been assigned from its MSO (manufacturers sales order). So yes, it has never been titled to an owner!
That’s not all, only 7000 miles from the restoration still there’s @80,000 on the odometer.
If you remember, I named this coach “big dog”!
If you’re serious about having a beautiful coach RIGHT NOW, not having to build it yourself……. Well brother here it is!
Call me and I’ll get you in touch with Bill. This is a top shelf piece, understand you will NOT find a coach in this situation.

A real beauty and incredible restoration. Amazing to see the rust free undercarriage. I live in Illinois where salt and sodium cloride destroys everything under your vehicle. Plus, consider it's a "Texas" dry climate, garaged vehicle, can't beat that. This seems like it would have been a very expensive restoration, kudos to the owner for doing it the "right way" and not cutting corners.

It is just beautiful! I would even go camping if I could go in the wonderful coach 💖💖💖😀💖💖💖😀

[@brucebasil4164]

Must be nice to have that kind of money.

[@jacklope1]

Wow, my dream. Contemplating if I should sell my house for this thing. Absolutely gorgeous.

[@motorhomerehabranch]

It really is, thanks for the comment

In 2010 my dealership took in trade a 2006 Mercury Grand Marquis with the "L" of "LS" missing. Of course, you have to buy the entire emblem to get one letter. So, I did, but I used another "S" and had a Grand Marquis "SS" for four years! Bought for $10,600 in 2010, sold for $10,000 in 2014. Well- built, just like the GMC motorhome.

[@RonHammers]

Dream vehicle, right there. Wish I had the money!

[@rickhodges1731]

What is the asking price?

[@RonHammers]

@@rickhodges1731 From the comments I've read, it seems he's taking offers.

[@michaelwilliamson6061]

Jim, this is the nicest coach I have seen!

[@motorhomerehabranch]

I can’t believe how he’s kept it!

[@blackfort1909]

Nice, clean GMC - I have no clue about the prices. Can you tell me in which ca. dimension the price is ?

[@kentmorrell3913]

Very cool! My uncle had one new back in the day!

[@V4Motorsports]

WOW!!!! Outstanding!!!!

[@wilfredvanvalkenburgh2874]

Wow! A one owner from new! What a great family story! I love the stories that go along with cars, and in this case, motorhomes! These coaches become family, like a daughter. I really like this one, but I love mine (I'm sitting in my '73 Glacier now!

[@MikeWitzenburg-fb9tn]

I would keep it in the family, especially the time and money restoring the RV. Would love to have it but it’s to old for my wife. Right now we have a high end newmar diesel pusher.

[@motorhomerehabranch]

Nice coach, Newman is a special machine too. Thanks for the comment

[@bradsnyder8802]

ATF leaking out the pan gasket. Just like mine! Do they come any other way?

[@motorhomerehabranch]

Sitting, the torque converter check valve leaks fluid back to the pan. Shifter arm seal, modulator seal and trans pan seal may leak. It’s spent the past 15 years parked up on the lift. I’m not surprised or worried

[@raymondparr1]

Hi ya can you please tell me what that drink spout machine was please.. and where can you get it from? Xx thank you. Keep up the good work. X

[@jeromehebert3184]

man, i would have to sell my 2023 honda gw but man this would be worth it. But I say 35k would be a fair price.

[@grahammonk8013]

These were a great idea, someone should build a modern version. Maybe a bit smaller with a Ford/Lincoln V8 FWD unit and do away with that transaxle.

[@cspeigner]

Jim is this coach come available?

[@aaronoliveira7618]

What transmission is in this? “Monster” you called it. I’d like to upgrade the motor/transmission in my ‘76

[@timothysullivan3038]

You said to give you a call but I can’t find your number! I reached out with mine on your Patreon.

[@renejansen]

Is this GMA sold or still available ?

[@bobdura6993]

price?

[@jime9305]

You know, if you have to ask you can't swing it.

[@larikine5912]

HOW MUCH DO YOU WANT FOR IT?

[@jime9305]

Wow !!! That coach belongs in a museum...it would be a shame to use it for anything but display and maybe an occasional fair weather parade or show. Donate to a museum and deduct it from your taxes, please.

[@meta2016]

Don't agree with this, id dar from factory, been restomodded, use that thing like it was built for

[@victorblas2705]

Jim, I would like to ask about this motorhome but do not know your phone number?

[@speedster9622]

Red is not a good color for GMCs.

[@rtskelton335]

How much?

[@motorhomerehabranch]

Compare and make an offer.

[@thejackofalltravels8267]

You can’t compare it to anything there isn’t another in this condition untitled. The owner must have a ballpark in mind why not just SAY IT?

[@motorhomerehabranch]

At this level it’s not about the price as much as the person. Yes, there is little to compare it to, so thinking about that…. I say again, make an offer

[@motorhomerehabranch]

Tell ya what, I’ll give you that, $75,000 …. No tire kickers, if you have the desire and the coin, call me.

[@thejackofalltravels8267]

@@motorhomerehabranch that’s a very fair number.thank you
