I know it's far from Supercar content, but I am feeling way nostalgic about these old vans lately. The perfect swap meet ride.

My Uncles took two of my brothers and two cousins from Cleveland to Anchorage Alaska and back in one of these back in 1969. They still talk about all the fun they had on that trip even to this day. The Alcan Highway was all gravel back then. They went through a couple of sets of tires and a windshield before they made it back to Ohio.

My best chum had one growing up so lots of fun memories also I worked on tons of these when on the bench including passenger door engine jobs.
Phil's story above is cool also reminds me of that Alan Arkin movie his character's sons drove the Coupe Deville cross country.
