LOOKIN for a CUSTOM 70s van

[Clark]

if anyone comes across a COOL 70s van in great shape with no rust and minimal windows I would greatly appreciate a headsup.. preferably a chevy but would consider a ford or dodge.. thanks

[Michvalk]

Are you looking for a collectable, or something to use and drive? A new van can be converted fairly easily

[Clark]

ummm ...wantin to relive my youth.. a sweet runnin 350 chevy with a 400 turbo tranny. some nice fat wheels and tires, killer stereo,glasspacks .jacked up in the rear 70s van.. you get the pic

Theres a cool looking van that runs around in my town, it's a Mr T van from that show from long ago. Its a nice copy, same paint, wheels and everything.

well John...you DO have a large part of your states population that do like to slam their outfits.. but I gotta say.. my group didnt slam or do the bouncy bouncy thing.. we drag raced. had bigass speakers to play 70s rock and roll for about a half mile of ft.laud. beach.. and had lotttsa fun with the shag if ya get my drift..I have a class b rv now which is a van with a raised roof and all the amenities.. I don't use the amentitiesas I eat out 3 meals a day and can shpwer at the campground, truck stops etc.. basically what I am lookin to do is no different from any of the other old dudes with their old school hotrod outfits.. mine just happens to have a van body..Serk.. that video was pretty dang FUNNY

[BF]

Somehow I would've had you pegged more of the Shaggy's Mystery Machine kind of guy.

[Dogg]

We have old dodges all over the place down here but, they rust so bad.

[Serk]

This one seems legit...

[Clark]

This one seems legit...

or NOT!!!!..but youdid give me an idea..FREE BREAST EXAMS.. thanks for the PM John.. I wonder if the jacked up vs slam the bitch was an east coast vs west coast kinda thing.. back in the early seventies when I was racin flattrack it was always a huge rivalry.. we even had bumper stickers on our vans that said I DONT CARE HOW THEY DO IT IN CALIFORNIA.. lol

Vans are so cooool . In the early 70s When I was racing bikes ,we hauled it around in a 70GMC STX 3500 window van . The 350 had blown so it was replaced with a 327 and 465 granny box 4 speed . 12" spoke 16.5 wheels and Thrush Aluminum side pipes . Now those suckers would put a nasty burn on your legs if not careful .

   Well I wish ya the best in finding your van and thanks all for the memories shared .

  Gee I dont know how I got carpet burns on my knees
