I bet the inside smells like stale coffee and boredom.
FREE CANDY
(Disqus adds: Body seems unclear, is it a complete sentence?)
An Atari 2600 would match the decor and reduce the boredom.
Some of the AV gear was installed very recently. That’s the current model of Shure mixer and the Kramer switch looks less than 20 years old.
If I had cash to burn, I would buy this…
I don’t ever recall seeing LCD screens on anything bigger than a calculator in the 1980s, either…this could easily have been in use, until quite recently.
I wouldn’t pay the current bid of $18K for a 1989 model, even with its obsolete upgrades. But if I played the kind of lottery where this van was a prize, that’s what I would do if I won.
If I won a proper lottery with a cash prize, I might spend some walking-around money on this van and donate it to a museum.
I’m most taken with the embossing tape on the speedometer telling you what side the gas fill is on.
Yep. those LCD screens look like early 2000’s vintage.
I guess if you spend a lot of money wiring up and outfitting the van, you use it until it’s age starts to make it stand out from the crowd. 15-year old vans aren’t uncommon around here, but 25 year old vans in good condition are rare.
and nice custom van paneling. Any shag?
Now I want WILCO to do something interesting with it.
"In a deliberate parody (Just like every other trope invoked in the film), the heroes of the first Attack of the Killer Tomatoes movie traveled in a car with the words “F.I.A. Unmarked Car Pool” painted on it."

I still see plumber vans like exactly like that in California…now, I gotta wonder…
How much for the full party van?
How much cash do you have on your person, citizen?
I’d imagine trying to get the smell of donuts and spilled creamer out would be quite a chore.
Good point. Worse yet, those smells will attract bears.
If this one has the fuzzy dice hanging from the rear view mirror, note that those are actually microphones.
