This fully renovated GMC Gadabout was one of the original Coca-Cola RVs. The Coca Cola GMC Gadabout was created in 1977 by the Coca-Cola Company and GMC as a promotional giveaway. A less fancy one was also created as a gift for coke bottlers. Open a coke- have the winning coke cap-and you drive away the most advanced mobile home built, the GMC Gadabout. Only five were made for the Grand Prize, and this is one of the remaining ones. We know that at least one has gone to the graveyard, two rumored to be owned by the same collector in Canada, and the whereabouts/existence of the fifth is unknown.

Although 40 years old, this particular RV is ready for a cross country trip. In fact, it just completed a 4,000 mile trip. The RV has new plumbing, air-ride system, cold-air intake, Alcoa wheels, Honda liquid-cooled generator, front-end, heating/cooling system, Alpine stereo, rooftop units (custom made to fit into original cowlings), and much, much, more. In addition, the entire interior has been redone, while showing respect to the original white and red look and feel from when it rolled out of the factory in 1977 (model year 1978). The paint job is original and in good condition. The colors on the back illustrate the look of a coke bottle fizzing to the top. The engine runs like a dream and it loves to take cross country trips. The revolutionary Coke Mobile was, and still is, the coolest ride on the road. A true vacation vehicle it is equipped with a full kitchen with gas stove and microwave. The vintage refrigerator (original) is modeled on the classic coke vending machine in Coke red.

The all red upholstered interior features a queen bed with wrap around full view windows in the rear, and additional bunk beds and a dinette that converts to a full bed in the front. The huge side windows and front wraparound windshield give the driver and passengers panoramic views. Whether you are a Memorabilia Collector, or a vacationer with an imagination, this is a vehicle that will delight you.The RV is currently at the Co-Op Vehicle Restorations in Orlando. Jim Bounds, the owner, is the world’s authority on GMC RV’s and knows this vehicle well.
