Subject: 1967 EMERGENCY SERVICES VAN once owned by Franklin County

To whom it may concern,


I bought this van and it was all blue and white but after I got it home I noticed it had lettering painted over the doors. I wet sanded both doors and found this letting --- Franklin County Emergency Services Disaster Agency. I thought it was really a neat part of history and wanted to share my find. I bought it in Kevil Kentucky and brought it back here to Midland Michigan.

Robert

Very cool van!! people pay big $ for old looking lettering like that..and you have the real deal, I would leave it as is.
Good luck with it

I talked to the guy Mike bought this from, when it was on Craigslist. If I remember right it was a Civil Defense van at one time, with a desk and all kinds of radio gear in it?? He bought it just for motor. Good to see you save it.

nice find

great find, clear coat and its done, very cool
