My you hauler Chevy express 3500 with 350 in it, has 322k on it but runs and drives like a top. Wanting to do a shop van theme on it. I don't have any decal people but was thinking about painting the logos anyone have any suggestions?

I was in Pull-A-Part the other day and saw a groovy Dodge utility van that was pretty nicely hand painted in a Mystery Machine livery. Probably not what you want to go for, but it was pretty eye catching. Lol

I've had multiple people tell me that it needs to be the mystery machine and I'm still tempted to put it on the quarters where the Windows would be, and put my Isley garage on the door. I just have no ideas on what the logos should look like

Maybe look on instagram or Pinterest for logos of companies and then build your ideas from there.

Next on the list for it is replacing the windshield and getting the side door painted to match

It's so refreshing to see a van that's not white!

I don't mind white but I think there kind of plain. The green definitely stands out for sure

That color green needs a Zombie Theme. Just get a vinyl mural for both sides. Just big enough to fill in what would be the rear glass outlines on the upper 1/3 behind the driver and passenger glass.

If it was mine, it would have a big KAWASAKI sticker on it.
