Here’s to the Chevy Astro and GMC Safari - you see these things all over the city, still running and, apparently, bulletproof. This business has a fleet of at least 6.

Miss Mercedes! Never seen one in this color before ...

I saw this while getting dinner last night. Apparently these still exist, too.

Gotta love the Astro/Safari vans. They’re fairly unkillable.

Astros were awesome vans. Except for a few years where they liked to pop head gaskets they’re unkillable.

Damn! I thought those all rusted themselves off the road already. Seriously, they rusted like IH Scouts.

Amazing it’s still on the road ... there’s a Cayenne around here that does dent removal - will try and find the photo.

I know I guy who’s had one as his work van for ages. I have no idea how he keeps it looking so decent while hauling flooring all day, but he does, and has for like 20 years

That colour is actually pretty rare. I’ve never seen it in person, only at the Chicago Auto Show. Nice find!
