3 Guys, A Sweet Van and No Dinero.

Project Details:

David, Phil and Josh are three guys that have a dream of restoring a 1961 Ford Econoline Van (A.K.A. Betty) in time to travel to the 2010 Cochella Music Festival and camp next to their dream van. They quickly dismissed their dream when they realized that funding the project would be impossible given their current financial situations. I suggested that they ask for help by accepting donations from friends and family, in return they will track their restoration progress for everyone to enjoy. If you've ever had a dream project that you wanted to undertake with your best friends, then you can certainly relate. Read our blog, comment our posts, and put on your seatbelts cause its gonna be one hell of a bumpy ride. Please do your part in helping these guys accomplish their dream by making a contribution through the Paypal donate button located at the bottom of this page.

Any contribution and I mean ANYTHING will be of huge help. Thanks!

This weekend has been hectic. We managed to strip the van. Never thought so much shit could come out of such a small van!


Thats not even half of the trash. Forgot to take a picture of the huge pile. My bad!


Its looking a lil better now!


Philly the renaissance man putting in some work. Had to bring out the face masks for this one.


Once we got everything out. Looks good!! Surprisingly there isn't a lot of rust!


Awesome can we found inside the van!.. I wonder how old it is?

Next on the to do list is the engine. We gotta see what works, what were going to replace and what parts are missing. Philly, thats all you homie!
