Re: Interesting van on Ebay: armored with CCV top
No arguments about steel rim durability... kinda pointing up the disparity between a $6,000 CCV top and some (3) junkyard-special 70's hubcaps

Re: Interesting van on Ebay: armored with CCV top
I'm wondering if this was original customized to be used in a country other than the U.S?

Re: Interesting van on Ebay: armored with CCV top
Isn't it just a old "Brinks" armored van that someone put a top on? Yawn.

Re: Interesting van on Ebay: armored with CCV top
I like the security locks on all the doors. And the plastic rear license plate hole has a metal plate instead.
I'm guessing he took the good wheels and tires and put them on a different van. Put the stockers on the van to sell.

I've heard California is a rough place to drive in.

Re: Interesting van on Ebay: armored with CCV top
At least nobody will be able to stall the van with a banana in the tail pipe.

Yeah, I'd prefer a Ford, but I'd be willing to compromise for something like in the video below. The remote controlled gun, and the "Red Jacket" show doesn't do much for me.
