Utah's Street Scene
Great idea Andrew, I'll play!
Out to pasture: This Chev is from the guy's yard that I bought the trike from recently. It has some really great stuff on it, but for the most part it's done for. It was dude's dad's back in the day. Unfortunately due to a leaky roof vent, it's rusting away to almost nothing in the lower sections. (be sure to fix them leaks kiddies, it's super easy and will save your rig for future generations to laugh at).
For a long time this Ford has been parked in a corner of a motox track. About a month ago it disappeared.
This Chev has been around my home town for as long as I can remember. It has changed hands a few times but is still on the road and looking solid.
Another local, this Dodge is immaculate. A bit redneck for sure but still amazing.
This guy emailed me this pic a while back, he's from down south of me somewhere, I forget. Awesome fishbowl though!(And dude if you see this, email me again, I'm a douche and lost your address before I had a chance to get back at ya).
Junkyard Dodge. This was in the "complete" sales section of a northern yard, haven't been back for a while, not sure if it sold or they ended up just throwing it to the lobos. It was cool though for what it was.
Cherry early that Lane spotted in SLC somewhere. I think he used his super secret bow-tie spy camera to take the picture without being detected.
Kick ass mid-econo Pathfinder conversion down in St. George. I want it hard.
And this super nice but WAY overpriced Street Van was in the classifieds a little bit ago. Wonder what is going to happen to it?
Utah's got nothin' on CA's scene but there's a few around. (this is probably all of them though)

Street Scene
My brother and I always spot vans and try to take shots of them and find out the story's. heres a few recent ones. Don't forget to post your local street scene.
A new buddy of mine just got this super clean early for only $1000!!! Runs registered and the works. It was found in East LA, with the old owner smoking pot in it, think his wife made him sell it. He plans on building it for his lady. I just hope he runs some super wide true spokes sides pipes paints it red and calls it fair lady.
Another super nice early Ford spoted at the last Long Beach Cycle swap. Nice green colors with a perfect straight body. And yes sometimes it does rain in California.
Another Cool van spotted at Cycle swap. This 2nd gen Chev. had a nice look to it. Love those BF goodrich Radial TA's. Notice the windows have been welded up in the rear.
This van was spoted on Norwalk and washington at subway, It was super clean no dents or rust, with baby moons. The guy didn't wanna sell Naao sorry. If this guy polised the yellow this van could be gold.
Not a huge fan of this van BUT the dude has it all painted like spiderman lol even has spider man hanging off the back ladder. I finally got a picture of this at Pepboys the other day. Sadly I feel I might someday see this one on the news.
Don't know to much about this one, my brother saw it in downtown LA and shot this. I like the windows and painted Cragars.I'm sure this van had its day.
Another van found by my brother in Downtown LA. In fashion district. He see's it alot. I really like this van from the windows to the deep front slot mags. The mural is just the cherry on top.
I always see this guy in Whittier, he live's in the trailer park close to my work, but could never get a good picture. Its really clean has slot mags side pipes double pop sunroof bubble window and CB. Before I got my van I was gonna try to buy this one.

Where has the time gone?
Damn to think it's been about a year of vannin for the Vandoleros. Well summer is here and time to party. This is a roll call for all you Vandoleros to step it up including myself. Been busy workin on a bike for born free, but now I'm back on the van, even got a chance to spray my hood (well with a spray can) but it will do for now.
Talked to Jason and this month we are gonna have a BBQ or something. Hopefully we could get another cruise goin with the Vanpires or something.
Born Free is June 25th And hopefully Im gettin some camping spots my buddy Ben and I are tryin to work it out right now but would be a cool time to camp drink beer and talk shit to each other. Let me know if you wanna go.
Don't forget to be a vanner, get drunk, drive, slap a old lady, wake up somewhere random, and get arrested with your vandolero shirt on!

Say It Aint So!!!
It's a sad day for us but maybe a great day for a couple new buyers. If you buy these vans please contact us and let us know who you are.
Killer vans for sale from stand up dudes. If I needed more than one van, I'd be looking to buy either one.
What does this mean for the "Creeps"?

Fun at Lane's
Lane swapped out the /6 in his '80 for a 27k original mile 360 motor and trans from the '75 Vanbulance. He did it almost completely by his damned self... and he only dropped the trans on his head twice!
Big huge mess and his neighbors probably hate him but it was a success.
Glad he's on our team.
