Do you remember this iconic 1976 Ford Van Paint scheme?

 

Similar was offered on Pinto

 

Today, at my small town Ford Dealership they have this out front!  

The execution isn't perfect but I totally applaud the effort!

Bravo for trying to bring back the van life look. I don't thing I would rock it but A for effort.

Is there shag carpet inside to help muffle the screams?

I hear Wally was created in one of those (originals)... behind a muffler shop or something like that.

Much respect for your local Ford dealer.

Note to Valley Ford in Ohio:

It probably only cost a few hundred dollars to make that happen, but now guys in Connecticut are sharing photos of your dealership. That probably represents a decent return on your advertising dollar, at least in some form or another.

I like it although they should have found a bubble window instead of the flat one, and of course it needs side pipes and raised white letter tires.  smiley

That's pretty neat.

Next they should bring back the various Free Wheelin' truck graphics. laugh
