ive been considering a theme to go on the new paint job, but i wouldn't be basing it around a movie.. although im sure there are some great porn titles..

my main concern is that there are so many themes eg. the beast, the judge, city lights etc.. that it would be difficult picking one that hasn't been done..

My mate is pretty keen to paint it (has been for about 10 years).. i might just dedicate it to my Grandad.. or maybe "The Restoration" or "The Finished Product", "The End Result"
haha

Star Trek Van was from South Australia,LWB 307 chev, black with gold and white flames coming from the front.
Several murals but the back doors filled in had a spock mural against a planet saturn background(bloody brillant),might have been a Rowan whatsis name job.
Had photos but I know I dont now.
Most of the obvious theme vans were panel vans,but joe public always warms to something that is easily recognised. :)
