Li'l Van
Custom Rod for Street or Sand

  • Original year: 1973
  • Company: Monogram
  • Scale: 1/24
  • Designer: Tom Daniel

Take a sporty fiber glass body, mount it over a VW motor and running gear, and you got the makings of one of those neat little dune buggies. Then take a custom panel top and close in the back for hauling picnic basket or scuba gear, and you got the Li'l Van! Designed as a street rod that's ready to hit the beach at any time, this saucy sand skipper has a style that only Tom Daniel could dream up.

Dave's comments:

I have no idea why they refer to this as a "Van." It's a dune buggy! This is a 1996 reissue and it's sealed.
