    Not sure that thing is running...I see it parked in the same place all the time. However, from the picture, this looks like Voltaire? I always see it on Santa Monica down by the 'ole Apple Tree Market....

    Scott, that's exactly where it was parked..on Santa Monica! The only reason it's still on the road is probably because it never leaves OB!

    Where's Scooby heading on that trailer? Hopefully to the body shop for a less insulting paint job.

    Scooby was heading for a car show where he surely will be the star of the show,,,,,,,the only good thing about it is that people wonder what he looks like without all that  make up on him,,,,,and come  to us to see what a Real van looks like,,,,,surely you wondered what KISS looked like under their make up???

    Those are some hold-down straps on that poptop!
    I talked to this guy at a West Marine on Midway drive in September. '13. 273 with an Auto, and it overheats on the freeway. he was thinking about selling it as he wants a van he can travel in. Gave him the url here but no other contact. The interior is complete.

    Scooby is not a van any more,,,,,,,his owner is not a vanner,,,,,he had it  built for TV programs along with his other General Lee, Smokey the Bandit, The Delorean, Herbie, and all those other cartoon and TV vehicles he owns,,,,,,,but I got to admit, when people see that Scooby,  they sure want to know what it is and that brings ALOT of attention to the rest of us owners of Vintage Vans,,,,,,,

    Funny how things come around- in 2010, way before I ever thought I wanted (let alone own) a vintage van, I was on vacation in La Jolla, Ca and snapped this photo- just found it in my cell phone- 3 years later I can appreciate this van even MORE! Maybe someone here owns it....

    The reason for this thread is to provide the most accurate count of Early Vans on the planet,,,,,this is the OFFICIAL Census of them,,,,,,ones that we actually see in our travels,,,,,,and as for that blue van seen in La Jolla,,,,,,that is the New York Van,,,,,,,imported to San Diego  by VanAgain and renamed VanAgains New 65 Chevy SportVan Deluxe, then sold to Ben in La Jolla, then bought by the 65-G10-Guy in Los Angeles to switch out all the pretty parts onto his 65 G10 panel,,,,,,and when he is done,,,,it will be For Sale again........
