I saw this at a truckin back in the late 70's and I loved the direction it was going in. Lots of body mods. Have never seen it since and wonder if anyone has a picture of it finished or if it is still around somewhere. Loved this van.

Those vans get put on a different planet or something, I hope it didn't end up getting scrapped.

I saw Lions Den in person a few years ago, after the rust and neglect had gone too far...... It was really sad to see a Nationals Best of Show winner in that kinda shape. Can't find a pic.....

That is sad to think about and most likely a sadder story what circumstances lead up to it rusting away

Here is a video when they were going to restore it but the more they got into the worse it was. I still think it was restorable.
