RodneyBad Posted January 31, 2011 Posted January 31, 2011 (edited) Rodney, They never came with that grille. The company had tried to make the '80 van look like the earlier van in the movie. You could get a base model Dodge van with single round headlights back then but it didn't look much like that. Here's what a real one looked like. Well dang, I guess they just fudged the grill like monogram did on the Ramcharger. A little from column A (1977) A little from Column B (just says the 80's) Not any Particular yr but a few all in one. I have this planned when ever I can get another one. Thanks.

ra7c7er Posted February 1, 2011 Posted February 1, 2011 another update with no pics. I really need to figure out my girlfriends camera. I braved the storm to go get this stuff. When I got there I wound up helping the guy get his car in his garage and chasing his dog down when he ran off. After I caught his dog he sold everything to me for half what we originally worked out. A good deal turned into a great deal just for helping someone out.
