Hi there.
I finally took delivery of my 77' Dodge custom last month.
I bought this van off Craigslist from Lodi California and had it transported to my home in Billings Montana.
The original owner (a vanner) had past away several years ago and his widow put it up for sale this past spring. It took a lot of doing, but I now have this sweetheart in my stable!!
The van is black with gold metal flake paint,with the Hooker flares and spoiler set I always wanted. Plus hard to find bubble rear windows and some very nice pin striping. Even has "Paramount" chrome square tube grill and quad light set up.
Interior is in good shape too with an oak cabinet with an ice box and sink etc. Even came with a bunch of King City dash plagues!!
I have removed a bunch of "NO FEAR stickers" etc, that were on the van and added will be updating the interior.
The van drives very well and has been getting a lot of thumbs ups and "nice van" comments when I drive it around!!

Hey Doug!!! She is a B-E-A-U-T!

Nice grille, now if only you could just get ahold of a set of playboy bunny ports to run on the sides to make her BOSS. [Linked Image]

Hey Doug! To quote a phrase we've all heard before..."An oldie but a goodie"! One heck of a nice looking Dodge (gonna make your Astros jelous). I think you need to take a cruise down to see the Alamo so I can get a closer look at it!

Hi there Dave.
Thanks, the van is a real nice ride!! I don't think the 'Stro's are jealous at all!
You know I'd cruise down there but I can't remember the Alamo!! (lol)
We might go to Colorado in Sept. with the van though, to the "Have and Have Not's".
We missed seeing ya' this vannin season buddy!

I'll try and post a pic of the interior sometime and convince Dennis to post a few pictures of his yellow Ford.
Thanks to all who have commented on the Dodge, thank you!!

WOW! She is a beauty for sure! Please do not cut holes in it tho. Solid panels are getting harder to come by these days, and make for a nice place for a mural or two.

Thank you.
Initially we was going to mount two Playboy Bunny portholes after the frames were powder coated gold.
But now we am trying to decide with or without!!!

[Linked Image]

As for interior pictures, I'll get one posted soon.
Inside it's a time machine with gold carpeted walls, and ceiling. The oak cabinet breaks it up nicely.
We have been looking for a blanket for the bed area with the rabbit head logo, but most are black and pink...which is a no. We'll probably have to make a black and gold blanky for those cold nights!!
