Virtual Vanthropologist Registered: December 27th 2000 12:00 pm Posts: 5666 Loc: Toronto, Canada	Astro broke this story to us on Facebook. http://www.popularmechanics.com/cars/news/shows/van-tastic-15-crazy-customized-vans Very positive comments from PM with some very nice pictures of some of our favorite vans. It's rather fitting that the first picture is of Wookee leading the pack of Vintage Chevy vans. VCVC hosted the warmup party, these guys are up for anything driving thousands of miles in their close to 50 year old vans ! _________________________ Showvans.com Vanfest 18, June 7-9, 2013 Virtual's Youtube Van Videos

Wisconsin Van Council Registered: March 16th 2004 12:00 pm Posts: 1844 Loc: Kenosha, Wisconsin	Joe actually emailed me this link yesterday and this is the response from him Sorry it took me so long to get back in touch, but I write today to inform you the vans are live. As you know, I took 100+ photos of about three dozen vans. Sadly, my editor decided to go with a more condensed "15 Crazy Vans" theme instead of an expansive Dozens of Vans approach. The good news is, most of your crew got ink. I asked him if this was going to be strictly online or if it would make the magazine, and he told me it was above his paygrade, so we can only hope. This makes 2 press people that were there and posted pictures online. Just waiting to hear from Tim from Mopar collectors Magazine. We definitely made an impression on all of these guys. _________________________ Ed Lil' Ed Gray Co-Chair 40th Van Naionals P.R. - Wisconsin Van Council President - County Line Vans http://www.cardomain.com/ride/750547 www.wivancouncil.com
