Looking For Stretched Astro

Post by VanGeorge »

Many months ago I inquired about an Astro limo that had been for sale....then a guy posted a photo of a Stretched Astro (painted Blue and Black) from somewhere in Alabama. The Astro has some logo from an audio shop (I think).
Can anybody put me in touch with the owner of that van? Does anyone know where it is based?
Thanks ahead of time!

I was trying to find the pic of the blue stretch I posted a good while back but guess I trashed it. The blue van was in Muscle Shoals, Al. on Woodward Ave. parked beside McDonalds. It was used as a roadside add for audio company one block off Woodward but don't remember the name of audio shop. I'll see if I can get my son to take a ride by there and check it out.

Rebel, Thanks for the input and I appreciate any help that you can give me to make contact with the owner of the one in Alabama.
Crash, The one I think your are referring to was a stretched Astro limo with white interior and seats and the van has windows. Is my memory correct on that?

I think the one crash was talking about had been around on Ebay a couple of times. An older lady had it up for sale and think it may have been a two tone charcoal and silver or something like that. This blue one in Al. is a cargo but had window in slider if I remember correctly. Still haven't heard from my son but will give him a call this weekend.
If all else fails, I can get the number of that McDonalds and you can call the Mgr. I'm sure he would know if it was still parked next to their parking lot and give you the name of audio company. I've done way more than this to track down an owner.

Where are you located ?

Rebel, Thank You, Any help you can give me is greatly appreciated!

AstroDan, I have never seen that one but I would like to.

The white or silver "limo" was a great looking ride and I hope I get to see it in person....maybe the new owner will bring it to an event.
