Ugly Vans!

ok Gman.....heres an ugly one....its parts or whole unit is for sale by the way.

Wow econorat,that van was in my 'hood' and i did'nt even know it.lol I think it a purdy nice van too.Like the nostolgia look about it.Shows it paid its dues.
John,that Falcon is kind of a rare bird(no pun intended).There was an underdash piece sold for like $350 the other day on ebay.No tellin what side trim goes for.The moss on the front-end reminds me of the carpet covered van that was for sale other day on the board.But still a lot of potential there.

You went to Bud's didn't you. I have several other yards O' Rust in my area. The A-100 behind the vairpickup has an automatic with the shifter on the dash. meanwhile back to ugly:

wooden bumpers

I was driving this home one night/morning when I was wholloped by a drunk. New years day 1974.

this old g20 had V-8 and factory power brakes.

Gotavan Dan ,Ever time I see pics of your 64 Postal Van, I don't see how you walked away with out any major injury's. Sure Glad you did. Heres one Troy and I found in a old tire recycling place. Guy did NOT want to part it out, Was going to put on top of his building as sign???[img][/img]

Oh yeah, we gots ugly..

after the animals moved out


This is where the factory put the power brake unit, behind the passenger headlight.

my wife was so happy to see this shiney new van in the yard!! The guy was taking the paint off with a torch.

Dirty, neglected, mis-treated, but not ugly....

G-man... fortunately that corvair is closer to you than me.. My garage is full already and parts have got to be next to impossible to find for this. The A-van is a tradesman has V-8 and trans, bottom wasn't to bad, no belly pan, and doghouse was in it. Depends on what day you are there on what price you're going to get. After I got a dash plate for the camo van I found one last night on ebay for 1/2 the price I paid there . So I bet the whole van would not be cheap.

gotavan... yeah that's bud's place. A couple of extra bucks was worth the fun that the "kid" had poking around there some days its actually worth it to have kids, and then there are the others.... The one I didn't have time to get into was on Crystal Rd north of m46, Crystal mike's I think. He was closed, but man has he got cars all over the place and part of an e-van nose right by the house. The "kid" was going nuts because he has acouple of el camino's up front by the road. Any idea how to get a hold of them????

There is another one less than 1/2 mile south of Buds. I will check on Crystal Mikes for ya, and then there's Hilliards at Vestaburg, one of thse places with trees growing the cars.

me in my new van Aug. 1970. just towed home

Same van summer 1967, only a couple years old

Dash of trash

Natural window fuzzys grow your own

That 66 A100 thats listed in edmore I believe is at Hillyards. It must be out back or a newer arrival , was driving by there alot when we were fishin' on the saginaw river this winter and I never spyed it

I was driving this home one night/morning when I was wholloped by a drunk. New years day 1974.

Wow Dan, I was like 5 months old!

Maybe Hillards is the one I'm talking about.. is it on crytsal rd north of m-46 on the left side??? cars all the way out to the road, probably 1/8 mile across the front and lots of trees with cars all over the place???

This one was bought out of a wrecking yard and served its purpose well as I to believe they are all purty this one is done. Bill
