I was driving home from Indy to Chicago yesterday and saw these guys. They allowed pictures and turns out they are an active group called County Line Vans. They have been around since 1978.

The skull Chevy has a 350 Crate engine with 330 horsepower and glass packs. Sounds pretty nice. My van was in site, but no where near as interesting or clean.

It's a rare site to see a group of vans especially in the midwest. I heard vans are coming back, but thats more of a west coast scene.

LOL Rockabilly.... those people wouldn't know the difference in a release dates from The Stray Cats to Hasil Adkins... 90% wouldn't.

Plus, those people claim to be "Old school" and have iphones. :flamer: Some of the biggest posers in the music industry and definitely the most stuck up.

My van is from 1993. Rockabilly was dead by the time Elvis Presley signed to MCA, but they did try to make it commercial with Ricky Nelson even if they watered it down by 75%.

Oh yes vans! I really need carpet and to fix my A/C again. I might take a drive to Austin, TX for a guitar endorsement deal. We will see. Marauder is better for road trips, but when you're on a musician budget, it's nice not having to worry about a place to sleep each night.

I followed the brown one pictured and a 60's style shorty down 294 a couple of years back. Pics are here somewhere.
