About
The
Van:
The Van was completely built & customized for the sole purpose of
van shows! It was rarely ever driven by the original owner. Instead, he
would tow it to the shows on a flat bed truck. After the show, it would
return to a climate controlled garage. Eventually, the original owner got
tired of going to the shows and decided to sell the van.
Shortly thereafter, I stumbled upon the van at a car show and purchased
it. It seemed like the PERFECT vehicle for a high school student.
The Van is 100% customized as you can probably tell from the pictures.
Virtually nothing on the van has remained 'average.' Even underneath
the van has been airbrushed including the gas tank and transmission.
The van has won countless shows. It has been written about and
photographed in various magazines.
The Van uses 2 different batteries. Each battery automatically recharges
the other one. Why you ask does the van need two different batteries?
Because the van has over 300 interior and exterior lights!
I installed numerous electrical gadgets including two different musical
horns which play 35 different songs each, a PA system, a police siren, and
countless other completely useless amenities. The van has a bar,
removable sun roof (wherein passengers can stand up and make a spectacle
out of
themselves as the van is traveling down the boulevard), crushed red velvet
seating, and numerous other customized features.
It was my very first vehicle. I owned it from High School until becoming
an attorney. Suffice it to say, (after MUCH persuading from family,
friends and fellow attorneys), it was suggested that a different vehicle
might be more appropriate for my profession. Eventually I sold it
and purchased a somewhat more conservative vehicle: The Corvette.
Nevertheless, I still am VERY much interested in custom vans. Accordingly,
if you happen to know of any Custom Van Shows, please let me know.
