Wow, just watched the video you shot of Ol' Santa Barbara (named after her original owner, UCSB). Have made some strides since your visit. Upgraded the tired 283 to a 350. Radiator overhaul, looking into upgrading the rear end next week. Since this video was shot, there was an... incident... which required bodywork on the front clip, new windshield, etc. The latest upgrade was reupholstery and custom shaped foam cushions on the bucket seat that came with it (originally from a '79 RX-7... I found a matching passenger seat but am going to pass on it. I did some measurements and found the passenger seat has a space 3" narrower than the driver seat. Going to have the original seat redone to match the pattern down the road).

New vids posted! Take a look at what we do please.
Like, subscribe, share...all that!
We love vintage Chevy vans. These are G10 and G20 series from 1964-70. These van have a unique appearance and feel while driving as they are forward control. The driver's seat is directly over the front axle. Many parts are interchangeable in these years but not many parts from any other model interchanges. Our goal is to help get as many of them back on the road as possible and help keep them running. They are easy to work on and can be great project vehicles.Mike

Thank you for your support everyone!
Our channel is starting to show some signs of popularity. Stickers are available now.
If you watch the channel you will see the offer for them but because we share VCVC I will send anyone a set of both for free.
You can stick them anyplace. Even Florida!
Thats right. It dont cost you anything to help your fellow vanners.
PM me your info as I will be mailing this week.

Just subscribed - looking forward to checking out all the videos! just watched "Front Clip Time Lapse" and saw the dash getting cut out... is the dash getting re-used or perhaps for sale? Looks like a first-gen dash but I bet it would fit my '67 and be much better than what's in there now...
Congrats on the channel!

The first run of stickers got claimed fast! Thanks to you guys and gals that asked for them. I had more on order and now there is a new size of the VanLab flask.
I guess that makes the old ones collectable!! LOL.
Mark and I want to thank everyone for your support. We appreciate you taking the time to watch.
The current postings are from last years efforts getting to the NATS. Mark and Jose and his 66BeachCruiser. Check it out!
I stopped working on Frank's 65 Panel when the annual van event (NATS) got closer. I turned my attention to Jose's 66 BeachCruiser. This video is mostly me...

Got my stickers in the mail and they're great. I took an old Jax Jumbo Shrimp schedule magnet, put the sticker on and trimmed around to make a fridge magnet. Looks pretty cool with all our Coke magnets too. Really enjoy the channel's content as well. Good info for things with my 66.Thanks much, and keep up the great work and content.

The VCVP stickers are available for FREE! It may take them a few to get there as Im on the road quite a bit and cannot get to the PO.
BUT I promise theyre coming...
Check out our endeavor!
The next series of vids will be the production of the latest batch of disc brake brackets. Really cool stuff!
We appreciate your support and wish you would subscribe and share the channel.
