Theme Tuesdays

Theme Tuesdays: Vans Can play too

Jun 23, 2009

The concept of theme Tuesdays here on Stance Is Everything is simple, every Tuesday I pick a theme and post a collection of vehicles with that theme that meet the stance criteria (modified suspension that fit the vehicles overall theme). This weeks theme Tuesday topic is: vans.

When people think of modified vans its hard not to think of those monsters from the 70s these days certain vans in the right hands can look down right amazing. Here is a collection of a few of the better ones I have seen recently.

VW
The Volkswager crowd are pretty much the innovators of the extremely lowered vans (well bus to them but lets not split hairs).

Since these vans like to return to the earth so easily they are normally not in your typical show condition but that ads character — Since these vans like to return to the earth so easily they are normally not in your typical show condition but that adds character

While a little beat up this VW Bus/van is flying both the stance and hippy flag — This VW Bus/van is flying both the stance and hippy flag

This is just enough Vw bus for me to put it here. — This is just enough VW bus for me to put it here.

Imports
Import vans (the tasteful ones not these things) are sometimes done up in ‘tuner’ style but more usually VIP style, really the VIP style suits them best.

V.I.P. style odysseys are really popular — The Honda Odyssey is a very common platform.

I preffer the black ones myself. — I prefer the black ones myself.

Front and back of another black Odyssey notice the camber

Mazda5s are also another popular platform being a large 3 after all, this one looks a bit different these days — Mazda5s are also another popular platform being a large 3 after all, this one is local to Toronto and looks a bit different these days

Toyotas Previa's are also pretty popular platforms, the fact that they are mid engine rear wheel drive is also pretty interesting

Domestic’s
I’m sure all of us have seen a modified Safari or two. The 70s American van craze might have blown over but that doesn’t mean people stopped modifying American vans.
