...been yearning for a Mk1 CF again since I bought that book off you. Yeah there's some great pics in there. Once I get back on my feet I'm gonna have another. Might try and track down a certain chopped yellow CF1 running Rover V8 that I've lusted after for years. Some of you may have seen it already. but for those who haven't this is the Chevy Greenbrier van I recently bought. Old vans FTW. Win! There a build thread? +1 Nice ! Heres my old A100 I owned around 84 That is awesome!! Is it still on the go?

Custom Vans, all the worst excesses of the 70's and 80's custom scenes all rolled into one... I love them! especially the graphics (not too keen on murals mind but meh) there far more individual than almost anything done now (ooh controversial!), shame there's not a lot of vans left now to build one from. as for the womble fur interior on that one ^

Custom vans from the sixties and seventies are the future!. But also, mainly the past.
