I have no info on it but it looks like a great survivor, and sure seems like you've done a wonderful job of keeping her that way... Great job...!

I remember Chevan...This van was shown in the ISCA Show circuit in the mid-80's and did very well. Mark drove it around some and it always drew a crowd, Nice to see that its still around.
