To bad it hasnt moved since that last photo at WSID two years ago. Keeps saying he is going to get a new radiator for it and try and stop the overheating problem but thats what happens when you get that big thumb print on your forehead.

Here's an '80s film you may not have seen. It shows a genuine Shelby Cobra chasing down a Holden panel van. There's a few other interesting cars to see too.

My bad, but in my defence it is my You Tube account.

I think this is a case of where you scratch your head and say "DAMN! I knew I had seen that somewhere before!!" hehe..

I had a HQ Statesman front, big American racers, TA's, with a 350 chev 4sp muncie, midnight blue metalic and the compulsory 4" shag in the back

That statement is open to a witty joke, Andrew; but I'll resist the temptation.
I was ahead of my time, had an HG in custom brilliant white, Monaro interior, widies, Mickey Thompsons on rear - but it was a UTE!

Seriously, do you all think panel vans are making a comeback?

I doubt that the van scene will ever be as big as it was in the '80's.
Here's a van site for any of you guys that want to check it out and participate in. Feel free to add any photos you want. I've stolen a few of them already!

I agree Rob it will never be that big again but we can grow.
