    Here is how the story went,,,,,,,since then,,,,,we have found a rare model that uses the SportVan body but says Chevy Van on the side instead of SportVan, (no pop out windows or maybe no battery inside or any of the fancy SportVan, SportVan Custom or SportVan Deluxe parts),,so those are like, Shevy Vans,,,,,,but Billys 8 door looks real,,,,,
