Notes
The vibrantly-coloured Chevrolet Van was issued during 1978. This is a factory sample item with hand-painted “PINDER” letters and decoration, as well as a Tiger label.
This particular version never made it past this stage – the production version has Jean Ricard lettering at this side and smaller ‘PINDER’ letters.
