Believe it or not that Edelbrock van has been posted before and unfortunately it's not getting any better looking.

I thought it was a West Coast Custom's car but it doesn't have 24" wheels with 1" tall sidewall tires.

I love those '60s vans! I was also a van fan back in the 70s when it was all the rage. Got a couple funny van stories but this is a 'Vette forum...

Cool van! I drove this for a while. Unfortunately we had to abandon it when the engine seized in a very remote area in outback Australia (about 150 miles west of Ayers Rock).







One day I'd love to do up an old Bedford van and travel around in it. It has to have 70s/80s style flares, big tyres and a v8... Something like this:

I've had my C3 since '04, but the van's been in the family since '84 and it's all Chevy, built 350 and a 4 on the tree

That video's pretty old. Bought the van in '82, same year my son was born. He made the video when he was about 20. Now he's 35 and drives a Z06. But the van's still going strong.
