Sorry no pics but I saw a van today on the 401 east bound outside of kitchener I was going west bound so I only got a quick glimpse but I swear I have seen it on ASV before.
It was 2 tone with an Orange upper half and white lower half with some funky pin striping between the colours. It appeared to have an escalade front end and caddy tails.
I'm sure I've seen it on ASV now the question is who owns it :-k
I can't figure out who owns this van.

Re: I can't figure out who owns this van.
well.. not sure if this is the one. i had saved pics when someone posted. i also think that i've seen it on ebay once. not even sure if this is a canadian van or not.
that being said... i do recall someone linking pics at the vanfest or canadian truck nationals in aylmer and seeing one similar..

Re: I can't figure out who owns this van.
well .. it's gotta be a van from around our area. found it on the vanfest site... http://vanfest.vandomain.com/
under show coverage from 2007 in the van gallery .. if this isn't it someone has done one similar that you saw... vanfest is held in aylmer ontario. between woodstock and london.

Re: I can't figure out who owns this van.
I am almost positive the van Crash posted is a Wisconsin van, i no longer live in Wisconsin,as I moved to Oregon about a year ago. However I have a good friend back home who is big into stereo competitions and I am pretty sure he has shown me pictures of that van from a couple different comps he's entered. I could be mistaken though.

Re: I can't figure out who owns this van.
The white and orange van is Puddin's. He's not really an internet guy. He will go every so often on Vandomain.com. He's a cool fellow.
I assume he will be at Vanfest this weekend. I'm looking forward to seeing him. He did buy it from e-bay in the states. Very cool van!

Guys from Ontario should pass by Saturday afternoon to see some really cool vans! More than 200 expected.
