can remember pulling into the original maccas at Yagoona late 70s and seeing a couple of dreggy looking guys in a fully decked out van with 2 smoking hot babes and thinking it must be the van as there's no other reason they would be with them
a mates sister was a bit of a bike (as was my neighbour) and they both had a thing for vans
at roller skating (bankstown and campbelltown) a lot of mates had vans and they were always full of girls
bunch of mates where i lived had vans
i was just pretty much meant to drive a van really
in mid 80s (i actually had 3 at the time) i was dating a girl who lived at blacktown and every friday night we would go to bass hill drive-in but i dont think i saw the second movie for about 2 years
was usually about 6 or 7 vans and we were always in the back row
those of you that never got to experience a packed single screen drive-in with the back 2 rows filled with vans - well, i just pity you. It was the best times i ever had
had a number of show cars and been to countless shows, taken out all sorts of awards and mates could never understandwhy i would run off to look at some old van where the shows full for 100k + show cars
went to buy a commodore ute 2 years ago and there was an XG ford van for sale so i bought it just because its a van - and i dont like fords
when the mambo van was at the motor show i went in with $5k and hassled the holden exec i knew to make sure i got Number 1 and he kept laughing at me. I thought it was because i wanted a van and then he showed me it was really a ute
i drove the mambo van in 2005 and offered to buy it and they wouldn't sell it - bastards :(
