4. hmmmm thats a toughie, it's a tossup for me, I'd like to see the star wars van or the dodge chop at the bottom. Either would be cool.

5. You picked 4 good ones. My pick is either of the last 2 - Alpine Express or Woody's

7. I'd steer clear of the surfer van just because it's a bit plain on the outside compared to the rest... I think it's important to fire some imaginations to make this series a success.

I've seen Alpine a lot - a really sweet award-winning van, but I don't know that it's level of customization would be what you'd need to rivet a young audience's attention.

The Chop with billet wheels would probably be a really good choice for series starter. It looks the most contemporary of the lot and is really sexy without going too far over the top with an inaccessible level of mods.

I'm curious about the Tradesman with the murals - I've never seen it before. The hybrid grill isn't my cup of tea, but it's well implemented. Overall a genuine classic custom. I'd put it as my 2nd choice - for having the widest range of the most accessible classic custom mods.

The tandem is really over-the-top with a pretty advanced series of custom mods... maybe later on? Perhaps an "advanced class" feature?

Thanks for giving us this rare opportunity - you're all great!

9. You Guys with these vans.they are all magazine ready.I would slip them in one at a time.

I would put the stars wars in the 1st and then so on.This magazine is going to sell sell sell

Thank the Gods Truckin's putting vans back in the limelight We all deserve this.

10. I like the Dodge Ram Chop with the paint fade ass a candidate... I like the StarWars one too, but the last van I remember you doing was Never Enough... a dual axle Chev with Red Flamed paint... it would be more difficult for your readers to build than the Chop.

The chop would make the biggest splash with you readers! And there must be some crossover techwise between Ram vans and trucks (just guessing)... a chance for pickup guys to learn something!

11. I would have to go with either of the last 2,Alpine and the chop.Newkirkinc1

12. I'd like to see them all featured, but my 1st choice would be the chopped dodge with the fade paint.

Thanks for showing some interest in VANS again.

13. I have seen each one of these in person and love them all.
But if I have to pick one I'll say the Early Ford with mountains Alpine Express Go Gary !!!

Wizard78 - Posted March 8 2009 10:05 AM

14. Anyone of these is magazine worthy. Know them all. Have judged them all. Since you are asking for one in particular than I will have to pick Gary's Alpine Express. Tom Battlestar is great. Woody's Smokin Chop is cool as well. Junior's Sweet Emotion is just that Sweet. The surfer van is also cool. But like I said, let's start with Gary's Alpine Express.

15. Yea, I'd go for the chopped dodge.

Tough choice though, all 5 of them are winners in my book!
