I like to leave old window stickers on vaagons I pick up - kinda a karma
thing.
One of my vans has a "Jesus" window sticker on it.

I call that van 'hey-zues' .....the hispanic pronumciation of 'jesus,' of
course.

Hey-Zeus is an  85 van is still available as an absolutely zero rust ( lived
its whole life in the desert before I got it ) dent free project body.
Not expensive either.
located in Southern Oregon.  Needs 'everything' ..but it's a quite good body
with nary a spec of rust anywhere.
