AUGUST 1989 CHEVROLET VAN

Any octogenarians out there remember strapping a Duke Kahanamoku longboard to one of these and heading off on a surf and sex safari? Didn’t think so. Long before devious surfing types discovered the friendly benefits to be derived from owning a panel van, vehicles like this old Chev were delivering bread and parcels and doing none of that ‘If Its Rockin’ Don’t Come Knockin’ kind of stuff. Not many vans were made so scarcity was in the vendor’s favour. However $7K with a lot more to spend might have been too rich even for the blood of dedicated Chev enthusiasts.
