True, nothing has come close to it even though it has been 30 years since the last one was produced..
Hot Wheels even made a few versions... They were the choice of top racing teams too, Paul, do you have a pic of the rest of the RV to go with this pic you posted??
A buddy of mine owns the Maclaren Team GMC Classic and one day will restore it. It was the base for the
Urban Assault Vehicle in the movie Stripes,
one was used in the
Six Million Dollar Man

In 1978, the Coca-Cola Co. sponsored a contest and gave away five Coke-themed GMC motorhomes. The owner of one of those collector’s items brought it to the History Channel’s “Pawn Stars” and offered to sell it.
Go to YouTube - Pawn Stars Season 3 Episode 49 Pom Pom Pawn to watch a recent episode featuring that unique item.*
* Note: the entire video lasts more than 20 minutes. The intro briefly references the GMC motorhome. Fast-forward to the 2 minute, 53-second mark to watch a 2 minute and 27-second segment on the GMC

If I was into RVs this is the one I would want..
