i saw this driving through gawler today, nice van, don't like the shovel though, not my thing

would the bonnet roof and window addons change your mind about the overall look or is the shovel nose just ruining it for you?

I think the shovel is a deal breaker for me.
But as george said, its your van and make it a reflection of you, don't let me influence your descision
personally, i'm going for a 5 piece flare kit (to'beef' it up a bit) and classic 70's mags and nice paint, thats it externally. i Love the orig. beddy SWB shape and want to keep as true to that as possible. Front bumpers are going to stay, but i'm even arguing with myself as to whether to keep or remove the rear bumperette's
Having said that, i don't want to see my van driving down the road when someone has copied it exactly. Variety is the spice of life. Ok now i'm just rambling

i agree about the overall shape. i have seen them (in pics) really modernized and to my taste that does not make sense.

but once ben posted this pic it was all over for me. had to have it.

I agree twice here, 1st the pic above looks great, and 2nd the shape of the beddy body is awesome, even though i am doing a full on custom, i am keeping that beddy look. Sometimes a nice paint job and wheels can be better then a lot of fabricating, like the green van above.

see that shovel isn't as bad, it has some interest, its not just flat. Oh and just noticed, the green van's flat front won't stay flat for long, the first time you do a right hand turn someone will crash into you as it has no indicators.
