hcsvader 1 #1 June 5, 2009 So as you know I bought a 1975 campervan a little while ago. Im trying to make this thing look like it belongs on a dropzone. So far its got a proffessional paint job by a drunk guy with a roller and a can of tremclad paint job still needs a few more beers put into it. I've ordered my "SKYVAN" license plate. I'm trying to come up with something to put on the spare tire cover on the front of the van, thinking about painting a prop on it or something like that. Any suggestions yu have will be considered, please include a beers quote for any ideas you haveHave you seen my pants? it"s a rough life, Livin' the dream >:) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DavidB 0 #13 June 5, 2009 For the spare tire cover, I suggest you make said cover ornamental in nature. That tire & wheel are already blocking a considerable amount of air from the radiator. Driving with a cover on the front will, I'm afraid, lead to overheating. Have or make a cover, that's fine, I just highly recommend you not travel with said cover on said tire. I wonder who has a good "head-on shot" of someone tracking? That could either be very good or very bad on that tire cover, depending on the artist.When the only tool you have is a hammer, every problem looks like a nail.

NovaTTT 2 #14 June 5, 2009 Wow - that is a serious piece-of-shit looking van. Perfect for the dz. It hope it's as much fun to work on as it looks to be. The spare tire is gone from the 'after' pics - did you lose it or is it out for repairs? If it were mine, I would paint "It's Beer-Thirty Somewhere" on the side. Have fun and enjoy the ride!

Brains 2 #15 June 5, 2009 Sweet, now decorate the outside with some flashing EL wire. something like "Free mamograms" or "Show me your tits" or something like that.
