I hope one of the Nat's reps gets in here and clears it up. I know nowdays nobody wants to turn anyone away and probably would not anyway espcially if they were a vanner that we know. But at a Major event like the Nat's there are rules to follow.

But like I said ... anymore nobody wants to turn anyone away.

It wouldn't give off any sign of anyone living inside.
I've seen a couple of them done that way and didn't look like any RV around there.

Obviously, as new vans come on the market, they can be added.
It is on the web page, part of the contract. "The following is a list of Vehicles that would be accepted into the Nationals. This list is only to be used at the Nationals. and does not regulate what can or can not come to any local eVANt. Local eVANt attendance is governed by the host club and the custom of the area.
Type of Vehicle
Panel Truck yes
Windowed panel (pre 73) yes
Hearse/Sedan Delivery no
Van up no
Swat truck/bread truck or step van yes
Cube Van (ambulance) no
Class “C” no
Transvan no
Explorer motor home (dodge) yes
Ambulance/Van (not Cube) yes
VW bus yes
MPV yes
Aerostar, Windstar, Astro yes
Safari, Caravan, Voyager yes
Hand Built box/mutant Vans chassis yes
PT Cruiser no
HHR Panel yes
HHR window no
Vehicles considered vans in Foreign countries not available for sale in the US. This is a gray area and will be considered on a case-by-case basis"
This list does not specify every van in the US market, but you get the idea. We will revisit this in Wisconsin, and probably add the list of import vans for clarification.
