I'm 53 and bought my first Van (a 1960 splittie panel truck with side doors on BOTH sides) when I was 20. It had 14,000 on the odometer and I had to bolt various engine parts back together in order to test drive it. It therefore either had 114,000 or 214,000 on it when I purchased it and I proceeded to put another ~175,000 on it. I hope it's still out there running about. I built a camper inside of it and hand built an extra fuel tank as well as a water tank which hung under the floor outside of the frame rails. If anybody knows of this van please give me a holler! It was sold in upstate NY in 1974.

Scott
