    I think that you will be starting a trend...of green and white vans! I was wanting to know the name of the color as well. Very inspiring; thanks for posting!

    That is a REALLY GREAT looking van. The color combo is perfect for the window van (or any other for that matter) and it just works awsome.
    In my opinion, that is one of the best looking vans on this site....and there are some ass kicking vans here!
    Nice van VH

    Hey VH,

    Nice looking Sportvan Deluxe! Mine is in the body shop right now, just about ready for paint.

    What process did you use to polish your aluminum trim? I've been told that if I buff mine out I need to put some kind of protective coating on it, or it will just fade again. Someone suggested clear anodizing! I live by the ocean and I don't want the aluminum getting all pitted. And do you have any suggestions for painting the stripe in the middle of it?


    Thanks,
    Rich

    Really nice job. I have to agree with all the posts above. That's one of the nicest fish bowls I've ever seen.
