I've had an itch for a van lately, anyone know of some good resources? I don't know if I'll pull the trigger but.....  

 

oh, and if people want to post picks of their favorites, that might give me some ideas! Thanks

Being able to tow a racecar or adventure trailer would be cool too.

Find a not airbrushed one. Then find a local tag artist. Supply him with the right automotive paint. These guys usually have really good talent and if they can make a couple bucks doing what they love, you'll likely enjoy the final product.

I didn't need to see this. I've been wanting a mural van bad lately. Good thing I have no money I guess or I'd be doing something really dumb.

I'm contemplating selling my 89 Delica Starwagon turbo diesel soon. Not nearly as cool as a full size American van, but still cool. Parts are pretty easy to source.

I don't think I'm in danger of finding a real life Matchbox Viper Van, at least.

Reminds me of that old song, about making love in my Chevy van.

As a Ford dealer, we were selling factory custom vans by the late seventies, port holes and all!
