The mysterious Wwildman
Deep with in the the old junk yards of days gone by there lives a creature more illusive then big foot. Slowly rebuilding the forgotten cool cars of the past. Wwildman emerges with his next creation a 1966 G-10 van .

Re: The mysterious Wwildman
Looks like a good solid rig. Just get it safe to drive and let the rest come as it can. It's fun just making plans and new ideas always come along as we work on these things. Some road time may show up a few tweaks you have to make also. When ya can, toss up a pic or 2 of your truck also

Re: The mysterious Wwildman
If the rest of the van comes out as good as the windows did, you've got a winner there!
First things first, make it safe, then worry about cosmetics as time and money allow. Cool looking start though! Congrats on the score!!!

Re: The mysterious Wwildman
Great to see that someone like you had the vision to see past the rough looks and instead see the potential of this little Chevy!!! Thanks for the pics and don't lose that Coca-Cola bottle opener. That's a keeper for sure, especially in those emergency hydration situations where the beer is not a twist off cap
