hey, since we're posting vans, anyone have suggestions for a good cargo van?

I'd like one with a roof rack and if it had a trailer hitch that would be a bonus. I prefer longevity and ease of repair over looks. I plan on painting it to look like a jazz cup like I did with my old cop car (pic included)

If you help me find a good one I'll name the crudely painted wizard in going to put on it after you

If I had that car I'd drive around neighborhoods like an ice cream van, selling terrible tacos and salsa in tiny packets at 90s prices.

Re: your question

A Ford econoline is probably your best bet. They're ugly as sin but they made about four billion of them so parts will always be available and cheap. The zesty (and slightly harder to find / more expensive) answer is a Chevy Astro/GMC Safari AWD van. Neither one will come with a roof rack but aftermarket ones can be found in abundance and cheap.
