Does anyone remember a wide body custom van from the movies? I can picture it in my head, I think it was based on a Chevy van and had wide square flares like 80s wide body race cars but can’t remember the movie. I have found some other cool examples but trying to track a picture of that van down

Watching "RAD" from 1986, BMX movie, with my kiddos last night and spotted all these. I think I have a slight vanning obsession, LOL!

Opening scene with a nice 76-78 Ford? I think that's the only years with round headlights right? And a sweet Dodge.

This Chevy was my favorite, but I'm a bit partial to early 3rd GEN Chevys. Like how he painted the grill with either white trim or left some of the chrome exposed.

The Good Old Days when there was basically a couple van's setting on every street. I watch the old CHiPs Highway Patrol show, always lots of cool vans cruising in the background. Back in the 1970s and early 80s, my rural community had around 15 to 18 guys who had custom vans. We used to get together on the weekends and have a kegger. Wish I would of took pics, my yard looked awesome with all the vans parked.
