It is an original "Boogie-Van", built by
The Van Man in San Jose, CA.
The Van was purchased for my Cowboy Action
Shooting hobby. It is the vehicle that I use to travel to all
of the shoots with. It is completely self-contained (with the
exception of a shower). I plan on doing more customization to
it (paint, wheels, etc...) as time and money allow...
This is my van as it was when I originally
purchased in July 2004.
This is the van after its first "clean-up". It
is on its way to transformation into The Jed I. Van
This is the decal that was on the wing window of the
Van when I purchased it. As you can see it was built by The Van
Man in San Jose, CA
When I originally purchased the Van it had this
convenient awning.
While the awning was kind of cool for camping it did
not fit into my plans for the Jed I. Van and it was sold.
Here is Kira in August of 2004.
