Default What todo with it?

A couple of months ago I bought a Toyota SpaceCruiser for a support vehicle when I go to the strip (cant get all my gear in the car), and its boring! I wasn't going to play with it but I just have to. I have already planned out the ICE install, I just need to buy a few bits for that, but what do I do with the rest of the van? I'm thinking a Mystery Machine paint job from Scooby Doo. What do you guys think?

Fingers, i had to read this a couple of times, at first i thought you said you had bought it for when you go to strip!!!!
Mystery Machine paint job would be good. You could also go for a old hippy tie dye style paint job.....lol
What about an A-Team van boring paint job?

Oh yeah Thats to the strip, as in 1/4 mile drag racing incase anyone else miss reads it.

The A-Team van was suggested by someone at work but its a flat fronted van and it would look very wrong. Plus as you say, it's a bit of a boring colour scheme.

Here's a pic in case anyone doesn't know what one looks like.

All ideas or suggestions welcome.

Mystery Machine would probably be best, but you need to get a huge Scooby Doo for the front seat....lol

What about a star trek runabout theme - white - kit over the rear wheels - add a few fins and it will look fantastic. Beam me up fingers!
