    Saw a van owner cleaning his FJ for 3 days prior to the show, only to sit in the dust all day.

    Do you have many other pictures that you can email me at all??
    Mural, Velvet interior, sounds like a nice van!!!
    I might have one of the mural. Velvet is only the front part of the headlining where they cut it out for the sunroof. Rest is 100% original. It is a lovely van, just needs all the tacky cr@p removed off it!

    I've often wanted to convince him to sell it to me, but it'd be a shame to repaint it which i'd get done as i'd immediately remove:

    Vacationer roof racks
    Sunroof
    Caprice bonnet emblem
    Statesman sill moulds
    Stainless mud flaps
    XB GT side scoops
    Tailgate mural
    Stick on side strips
    Tramp rods
    Wheels
    Edelbrock Performer (original rotted out).
    Holley
    Towbar
    HQ rear bar
    Wheel arch moulds.

    Then i'd have to get another 23C headlining made as the front half is missing due to sunroof and tacky crushed velvet replacement added.
    I find this amusing because sadly I can remember when all this was what the guys who owned vans dreamed about putting on their vans.....how times have changed.....

    Now it is all scrap metal. You still see people doing this sort of stuff today, with ugly add on sh!t all over good cars like VZ Holdens and Commodores and also on cr@p like Hondas and Hyundais. Only difference is no-one will ever care about this later junk.

    I think it came with an option of twin exhaust

    (I read on a previous thread they are putting twin exhausts on loads of 4cyl cars thesedays....)
