Well I've always liked SS Chevy's. They made SS454 pickups, SS350 pickups(dealer installed option from what I remember) Blazer SS's Elcamino SS's, S-10SS's. But the only one that didn't make the cut was the vans. My van was a 90 Shorty, but the running gear was all 90's 1500 pickup. Just made sense to me. Astro350SS is the name of my van, and hence my screen name.
The other one that I was going to name my van was the Hurricane. That would have been if I had done a turbo 4.3 AWD. My reasoning is that they had the s10 which was the Cyclone, the Blazer wich was the Typhoon. Since the astro already came with basically the same AWD drivetrain, a turboed and tuned version would have made the "Hurricane".
BTW, my screen name on my other boards is SSRx7... guess why
Later,
