Today when I was with Steve getting pictures of the 1964 press camera wagon off in the edge of the woods was this thing sitting there looking back at me so I went over and got some pictures of it, it is also for sale but price has not been set yet, still in rather nice shape except the windshield got shot about 10 times with a B-B gun and the 2 side windows got broken, Interested??????

I had windows stolen out of my Zip Van when it was stored. Obviously, there was a VERY small group of individuals with a need for those windows, but I couldn't prove who the thief was. The worst part was that they cut the rubber to get the windows out. Getting new rubber window mouldings for a Zip Van was not easy.
IIRC, a Zip Van has a sun band at the top of the windshield. It is not simply a piece of flat glass. Also, it is a windshield not side glass (different glass). It is also huge, as far as flat windshield glass goes.Gary L.

Cute little bugger. I have a good 1963 170 engine for it but I cant justify the expense of having that Zip van hauled here. Would be nice to see it put back to some kind of use but in reality, it probably isnt practical for anything.sigpic

$100 van, $2000 tow. $2000 Van, $100 tow. ?? Location is everything Bob You are the one always saying that. So-where is it?
FYI, zips do not rust on the floors, they rust at the roof seams, fender seams, side rails and places pics do not show. I have seen several and passed on all of them. This one here is a very LATE one.Last edited by (S); 04-24-2012, 11:20 PM.

Had I seen the one you're mentioning I definitely would have been interested- it's within reasonable driving distance for me. I wish you would have mentioned it here.
If you come across it again, please do let us know.Proud NON-CASO
