Looking for info!

Postby KimberChicks » Fri Aug 23, 2019 10:38 am

Hi all~
I acquired this little gem from my father’s estate when he passed last March. I’m looking for any information someone can give me as far as a year and a value as is. I know very little about it other than it has a Chevrolet engine. The VIN plate is missing and unfortunately we never located the title. I did find a plate on the steering column shaft, (see photos) but I haven’t a clue if it’s actually the VIN number or serial number. My father used this truck for his electrical business 20+ years ago, but it is currently not running. He did purchase replacement curved glass and I believe he had purchased the front windows as well, we just haven’t come across them yet.

I have more pics available, for some reason I was only able to upload three.

Any info on it would be greatly appreciated.

Regards,

Kimberly Conti

Hi Nice Van, you may get a little information from some of our members but this site is specific to the 1985 vintage Grumman Olsen "Kubvan".
Your van appears to be a 50's or 60's vintage Grumman Olsen "KURBSIDE"

see the links below for what I was able to find on a quick search.

No trouble to leave it, someone may respond.
I might archive it at some point in the distant future.
Good luck !
