If we all liked the same stuff we'd be a pretty boring bunch wouldn't we?

Mezzos I think urs is best by far... the white colour works ...I guess in the 70s they would like to make futuristic. ...makes sense. ..now lots of people like classic cars.ummmm its like back to the future...

Too true Mezz, Beauty is in the eye of the beholder they say. A few folk have commented that my van looks too bland all in one colour with no windows or paint stripes, but it is exactly the look that I wanted. Took her on a short run down the road to gas her up tonight and still can't stop smiling. Life is good.

Put a couple more pics of the 'Tarago' oooh gunning your killing me  :D. i love the look of the old school and Gordons is a prime example! had i not gone the easy roller route i was planning the full RETRO restoration bit with wider, body colour rims, small chrome caps (originals) and a sweet little white wall tyre - chrome grill and bumpers and that's it. Simple but really effective.

I'm a lucky boy as I've got the magic bus also which is kind of in between.

 hey mezz sorry about the tarago bit, i remember the van craze although i was young it left an impression. I think old school rocks, fat tyres, raised white letters, deep dished mags, murals etc
I love the easy roller, something about it, cant get enough of the pics and stories, help remember a magic simpler time
my plans for my beddie....or two is one based largly around the easy roller ....flares and wing same but different front and bonnet, possibly a single piece rear door to
