I don't know who the owner is, but those look like mid-70's Lincoln MK IV headlights.

That thing is far out and I too like it. That said, a red grill would give it that "eyes closed-tongue out" look, and from the side it could almost look like someone rat-rodded one of those metal backyard gardening shed. Again, I'm not slamming it, I do like the van.

Agreed, it all about interpretation.
Would I do it to a van? well, no I wouldn't. Am I glad someone did? Would I be all over it if I saw it at a show? HELL YES! I like it.

HAAAAAHAAA!!! Dix, you may have something there.
I do think though that a blood-bath slasher movie could be written with that van as the center piece.

I applaud his out of the box thinking on this. Not for everyone but I think it's cool. Got the lead sled look goin on which has always been popuar. If it was painted it would look much cooler.

I like it as it is. You guys can call me crazy if you want...It sure as hell wouldn't be the first time a large group of people have done so, there were several other times but of those stories, the ones I remember are unrelated so we needn't get into that now.

belongs to this dude who primarily builds old milwaukee iron. lots of fab on this thing. i like the fishtail exhaust. not my cup of tea but it's cool to see something a bit different now and then.

I would totally watch that.
But truth be told this van would be much cooler with a few mods. Stat with tossing those running boards, pit the door handels back on and clean up the fliied in headlight welds. Slap on a coat of blue or shade of blue paint and it would be a great lead sled.
