Vonage Vans

While out visiting family in NJ last month, my wife and I noticed a pair of E's sitting out front of the Vonage building in Colts Neck. Since we were lucky enough to have our camera with us I jumped out and took a few shots. The side exhausts, as cool as they look, are just dummies.

Cool. Thanks for the piccies. I wanted Cragar SS wheels on mine when i get around to rebuilding it, those piccies have helped me decide for definite that they will look good....

Sy

I want those mirrors!!! (What's the deal with the passenger side mirror on one of those vans? Broken?)

I second the Mirrors!! anyone what they are??

I saw one of the Vonage Vans for sale on Facebook. The ad side he fixed the damage and rust in the front and was selling everything he had that dealt with econonlines for $8500. Sorry don't have a link to the ad...Facebook marketplace mystifies me.

That's cool. A modern day relic again, of all sorts.

Found a link...

What is used to look like

I think they built 2 for the commercials...

One of those should be in my garage within the next few months!

Hey Bronc, just remember...if you don't show us pics...it never happened! LOL

As soon as I sell this to make room for the Van you will see it in my garage

Back in June I posted that I was getting one of the two Vonage vans. It has taken 6 months but I finally got the van. I have not sold my Nash Metropolitan yet but I did sell my 1967"Pro-Street" Nova thereby making room in my garage for the van.

I am having difficulty posting pictures to this site as I am computer illiterate. The van looks exactly as represented in a previous post on this thread. It is actually in the same spot in that garage as I am trying to get it media blasted at that location as it is an industrial complex. In a perfect world I will have it blasted there and I will prime it there and bring home a clean van to start with.

My build will be an extensive and long term project. I figure this will take me 5 years. Plans include IFS up front with a small block Ford. Tubbed rear, bagged suspension and shaved door hinges. The inspiration for this build is VanGo, I wont copy it but I will take cues from it.

Once I start work and figure out how to post pictures I will start a build thread called Bronc Shine Build.

I am looking for a C-4 output shaft and tail shaft with yoke from a 1965 or later econoline.

Stay tuned but be patient, this is a marathon not a sprint.

Sounds Great Bronc! And it's cool you have a van that was one of the Vonage Vans...cool bit of history to go along with your build book at car shows.
