    Got the vans all buttoned up for winter! I really like this pic, that's Savage's 68 G20 all snug up against the wall, my 67 108 Dodge keeping it company, and the 66 up on the lift getting lots of attention this winter. Thought this made a pretty neat vanner polaroid moment!

    sadly the 66 won't be in storage this year and has to sit outside for the winter, in storage I can't work on it. Next week I hope a buddie can help with some welding on the floor.

    Ken, I think Chris is dropping a subtle hint!

    Digz, that looks like a before and after shot! Nice pair! Also, nice winter home with plenty of room! Love it!

    My 68 came from Cail and was going to have to set outside all winter. Tom made room at his shop so I could store it there safe & sound. Still got the 65 BB & 64 Nodoor at home,hope to drive the Nodoor over winter. As long as no snow, salt ,sleet or rain.

    Good luck with the No snow, salt, sleet or rain thing! LOL

    Looks like a tight fit on the trailer! Nice ad on the side of the van...

    Really nice of Tom to store it for you. True vanning spirit!
