What is your favourite van of all time?


Mini Ice Cream Van 1960s


Almost from day one the Mini's nature of being very practical in terms of parts availability and that it was a cost-effective mode of transport, customised cars based on its chassis started to appear. Many glassfibre bodies were put on the Mini's basic frame and the result was a large array of practical and fun vehicles during the 1960s. Outspan customised a Mini for promotional purposes, the result a giant orange on wheels with a small windscreen at the front! Another ingenious use for the Mini was as a mobile vending vehicle such as an Ice Cream, a once familiar sight around our housing estates and coastal resorts.
