Just these two, the beater I built in HS and teh other I need to actually finish.......

The Beater has a Webber carbed SBC in it and one of the bubble windows has clear plastic glued in on the rusty side and the kustom one is on a stretched C5 chassis!

Then again, I've also been around vans for years

Here's the only pic I've got of our 1987 G20 CHevy Beauville, it's been dead for a couple years now but still hanging around as a storage container for the time being. Don't have a picture of it, but this one replaced a nearly identical G20 '78 Beauville.

Here's my folks '06 T&C, can happily say that there has yet to be a problem with it!

This is the only one I have left of the ones I built. Built this one in the early 80s.It is the JUKEBOX van. I just dug it out of a box and cleaned it up so I could take pics. I have another of these still sealed in its box. My builds sure have changed in the past twenty something years!!!!

Here's the only one I have Finished, well, not actually finished, but close. It's got four bucket seats and lots of green flocking, but it's almost impossible to see inside through the windows. I named it "Toadstool" and still need to get it lettered up. And I also need to add either a stinger pipe or some zoomies.

I'm also looking for a 69-74 Ford van, the 1/20 scale kit. I used to have a 1/1 74 and I would have to say they are my favorite van of all time
