Lots of junk on FB, the internet in general but this is on FB. I would love to take this for a run.

That's sweet! Thanks for posting...
When I was 11 my folks had a 63 Econoline window van like that body but in Meadow green.
Road trip to western Montana convinced me I wanted to live there someday. Great memories!

Would probably be a blast on the beach. Toss a couple surf boards in back sticking out the windows and we've got a party.

Where I live the Forest Service closes the roads in the winter or makes them snow machine trails, gated. If I lived in AK I’d buy this in a minute.
