Here it is...but just a guess at this point. Color scheme looks correct but a call to the owner would solidify this for certain.

It looks like the scooby doo gang were trying to class up the Mystery Machine.

On a serious note, that would be a cool project for you to fix up and sit by your longhorn.

bet lhm is dying for this one....

stllookn · 07-22-2009, 07:08 PM

Looks pretty original. Hubcaps are wrong but you just gotta love those white walls!!!! You can park it in my pasture until you are ready to retrieve it...LOL!

72BlckButy · 07-22-2009, 10:22 PM

72shymedblue · 07-22-2009, 07:20 PM

Did GM make 50th anniversary vans?Technically,vans haven`t been around for 50 years,yet...almost.How about this truck?

I know,it`s a`69 or newer.

Yes they did make 50th vans. I know someone who had one.

I emailed him the link.

I'd have that c60 in a heartbeat.... well that is if I had room for that beast!

but the van is my second "smaller" choice.

That truck looks like a old Blue Bell Ice cream delivery truck.

Funny you say that Stoney, I saw that picture and something about it made me think it was shot in Texas.

Longhorn Man · 07-22-2009, 10:16 PM

the 50th paint was avalible on all chevy trucks in 68... vans and el caminos are considered trucks, as were burbs and panels. They could all be had with the 50th application.

**special-K** · 07-23-2009, 05:32 AM

Ok,I didn`t know that.I was thinking since they weren`t around for 50 years yet...You know,like the Vette has it`s own anniversaries and it`s a car.

There's a guy in my neighborhood who has a '58 Bel Air 4-dr hardtop that he parked in the back corner of his yard almost 2 years ago. It's just sitting there. The color? Gold/white. Geeze, Chevrolet wasn't 50 years old until '62, but the anniversary gold paint has been popular from time to time.

I was seriously looking for one of these vans at one time, although it didn't matter if it was a 50th. Then I saw some pics of one that had been in a front end collision. I feel safe in my C20.

I still love the looks of the van though!
