Thank you Denim! I really appreciate your thoughts! Especially coming from a guy who probably has one of the most beautiful custom painted vans in the country right now! I will most likely be going with paint.

Thanks again...

Thanks Doug!

Very good, I really appreciate the feedback! I will most likely be going with paint but wanted to investigate other possibilities. There really is nothing like an airbrushed mural buried in the depths of glorious clearcoat! lol

Thanks again...

Thank you for your thoughts! I will most likely be going the direction of paint. The LAST thing I want my van to be thought of is a "nice 20 footer"!


Thanks again!

Thank you. I truly appreciate your feedback on this! At 44 years old I finally own the '70's style Chevy van I've dreamed of owning since I was about 14 and honestly want to do the best thing possible when it comes to upgrades etc. Like many others out there I've got a family, a house etc so whatever I accomplish must also fit the budget but I am a bit of a perfectionist so I must be totally happy with whatever I do. At this point I will most likely be going with paint but may hold off on some other mods for now.

Thanks again!

Sounds like you've made your decision, but here's a thread on a fellow that did a partial wrap last year. I haven't seen it in person, but it looks good in pictures.

Thanks Josh for providing that thread... That Dodge looks great!
Still think I'll be going "old school" with paint.
