This was mentioned a while back in a post that it would be nice to have an Econo from each year at the 2011 Nats to celebrate the 50th Anniversary. For the early years I think it will be easy enough to cover it's the Mids and Late models that might be harder. If your going to the Nats with your Econo or you know someone who is let us know the year to see how well we can do with this. A group shot of them all would be in order to be sure.

Thanks guys, that's 3 ... 47 to go. Let's say that if the vanners who do chime in here make it to the Nats that they will have the spot for their designated year.

We'll make it happen regardless of how many we have, but i'm sure we'll be pretty close. Here's what 18 Econos looked like at Vanfest last year, we might need a wide angle lense to get 32 more in the picture at the Nats lol

I've only seen pics of those and I really like them. You almost have to have one at the 50th gathering to book-end the model's history.

Having a 50th E-Series at the Nats would be cool, but if we didn't manage to get one to the CofC it may be very hard to come by one in July unless Nate goes out and buys one lol

We'll get the Econo gurus on board with this idea and try to get as many of the dates as possible.

I'll say something to Fish this weekend. He's not on here but I know he's going to be at the Nats and he has his 77 Cruisin Van that's in the Calender this year.
