respect the van, man.

Last Sunday I was leaving South Bay and took the scenic route around the Palos Verdes Peninsula.

On a usually sleepy stretch of road on a bluff overlooking the bay I stumbled across a caravan of Chevy & GMC vans.

I may be wrong but I think there's some non-GM interlopers in there. Also - the last vehicle looks interesting. A 40's Chevy?

Looks like they're having fun!

Top picture is mostly Dodge and Ford vans. Bottom pic, I see one Chevy. 70s vintage vans are true survivors because the tin worm would go ape on them.

The first band van I ever drove was a '76 Chevy that was an ex-conversion band. As the band got more gear, more and more of the van's interior was gutted until you were left with the two captains chairs up front and lime green shag carpeted shell. It ran well though and always got us to the gig and back again, which its' successors cannot lay claim to.

Last van in the top picture looks like a Dodge to me, circa 65 model A100. My brother-in-law used to have one. The car behind it appears to be a VW bug to me.
