That is pretty interesting man. Never seen anything like that before. Someone at my school has something similar to that but it is a little newer than that but has a chevy drivetrain under it.

Yep, those early vans are cool IMO. Those were the original Chevy vans. That style was built from '64 to '71. A friend of mine used to have a '68.

That's a Scooby-Doo Mystery Machine Van! If you had one of these in the 70's, you were "groovy" and probably had hair down to the middle of your back with a lot of hippie chick girlfriends.

Someone bag and put some nice rims on it!

Seriously those things are cool. Wish I could find one for a vintage service van! Rooby,Rooby, Doooo! I think theres one on CL around here. If I get it, I'd have to live in it.

**Clyde65** · 02-08-2013, 08:38 AM

I would love to have one, I went and looked at one near me a few months ago, it had no motor or trans, I wanted to stuff an LS in it and drive the crap out of it. but they sold it while I was on my way home to get the money for it....sucked too, that would have been cool!

Jackjohn · 02-08-2013, 08:48 AM

I had one in the late70's. put in a bed , lites, and mirrors. Boy I thought I was cool! Lol

Bazooka · 02-08-2013, 07:56 PM

What kind of suspension do these things have under them?

**Captainfab** · 02-09-2013, 02:11 AM

A straight axle up front with leaf springs front and rear. The differential is a sort of hybrid. It is a truck differential but the wheel bolt pattern is 5 x 4.75"
