THE VAN 2 or THE VAN:30YRS LATER
This movie actually would serve as a great inspiration for a new movie.
plot would go like this:
main charactor (mid 40's in age)is having a mid life crisis(recently divorced), his mother has just passed away at the begining of the film and he is selling off her etate at an auction when he stumbles accross a box full of his old collection of 1970's magazines and see all of the photos of those old tricked out vans from that era. then he remembers his old van and decides to spend his inheriteince money he receives from the auction proceeds to buy another full size van and have it tricked out (trying to recapture his youth)
he builds a brand new Ford Econoline Van into another show van. complete with waterbed, plasma TV (the works) and goes cruisin' again.
This could be a halarious movie of an older fortysomething year old man (balding) who cruises around yelling/flirting at younger chicks. This would make some great comedy, as he tries to fit in with the twentysomethings of the modern generation. - and it wouldn't cost alot of monet to make it.
the van would have to be Ford Econoline this time (they are the only company that still mass produces a full size van)......true GMC still makes one too, but it is a special order item(most GMC dealers dont even have a full size van on thier car lot)
