A friend of mine had custom made a chevy he did from scratch. It was one of the coolest ones I ever saw in person. In my junior and senior year he would was the captain of the football team. He would go to practice and I would pick up beverages and girls and go pick him up. It was great.
When I moved to Florida at 19 I noticed another Chevy on one of those rotating displays on the way to my girlfriends sisters apartment. Turns out they just wanted to break us up so they kicked me out as soon as we got there. I went to the local pick kwick and called a cab. 2 hours later I showed up and picked her up. The look on their face when I drove up and honked was priceless. It was a white with a 350. Not as nice as my friends but it was pretty sweet. They both had beds in the back with sitting on big ass speakers with a great sound system in the ceiling above the drivers seat. Captains chairs, pull curtains, fridge with shag carpeting. Tons of storage under the bed, TV VCR. I loved those vans. I am seriously going to look for one now for my boy. It's amazing how many of those things are still original owners.
One of the great thing about these was going to parties. You never had to drive drunk amongst other benefits.
