Vintage Vans

I've seen the econoline thread on here. But what about the other makes?
Anyone with chevy or dodge vans out there? Let's see 'em

 

Nice chevy's...I use to have a 64' & drove it everywhere. I need to find my pics

 

Nice lookin vans. Brings back good memories!

 

There is this thread too.

I have a '64 Chevy that I'm working on, here are a couple of pics:



Flaked dash and drivers compartment, still needs to be wet sanded and cleared:

 

there was a guy who was a traveler I helped out when I worked at autozone a few years ago.. he had a 60's dodge but he got it turned into a 4x4 it was wild...

 

I thought the thread was about shoes

 

Now that's a good one.

 

vintage-vans.com covers all three plus corvair.

 

You mean like these? Hell yeah, I wear them everyday...


Just kidding, I had to.

 

I have a football sized red scar on my right thigh from '64 Ford Econoline van. It over heated in the winter at about 30 below faren. Out side Prince George B.C. The rad lines up perfect with your right leg, I let it cool down while I went for dinner came out a half hour later, and carefuly took the rad cap off. To check antifreeze level. It was ok for about 15 seconds. It burped out a cup or so of scalding liquid. burned hell out of my leg. I sold it where it sat, and got a ride home. Couldn't use the clutch.

 

This ran around my area of So Cal in the early 70's

 

Vans are gay

 

Well, maybe, but not Vangina. That is one tough box!

 

When I was hitching cross country, I got a ride in that van.

 

Katatonic mike...Doh...I guess there was already a blog for this...

 

this is the gmc, i owned, sold it last year, building another one

 

If I might attempt to drag this thread off the subject of skate shoes for a moment. Here's a new shot.

 

Hell, I wish old Vans would make a comeback. I used to manufacture snack trays , consoles and several other pieces for vans , INCLUDING the EARLIEST models too! I could care less what the guy from Washington state sez ................. Musta been a PUPPY TRUCKA !!!!!!!!!!!! scrubba

 

Love the vintage vans...been looking for a clean one for my business...keep those pics coming

 

Now sold (its in Finland now)... But i did enjoy this... 1968 Dodge A108.

 

My old '67 Chevy. Sold it in March. Super clean from AZ. Damn I miss that thing!

 

Well Oddrodgarage, since you asked so nice...

 

Here is our Chev 90 that I'm finishing up.... Its not Vangina but could be when it gets a little older.

 

haha...thank you kind sir

 

And I see why you miss it! Great wheel and tire combo. It's a beauty!

 

"Toughest box on wheels" ..I lost it after reading that
