From 11 years ago: Dear fellow believers in all t From 11 years ago: Dear fellow believers in all things Awesome, I have a strange tale to tell you... I recently took over an old corner store near Dufferin Grove Park, with the intention of transforming it into a cafe/supper club/place-where-creative-food-things-can-happen. To help facilitate this, I needed a van to run errands and do renos. In my search I came across an ad for an inexpensive 1978 Chevy van with only 97K kms on it. Since the ad had no pictures, and I am unfamiliar with, though fond of, vintage vans, I Googled the model to try and get a sense of what it looked like. Browsing through the results, I stumbled across the incarnation of Awesomeness itself: a custom 70's van emblazoned with a giant Pegasus flying through space, called the Space Stallion. In the description, it notes that this van (created for Levi's as a promo vehicle) was located in Ontario, and has only 97K kms on it... My heart stopped... Could it be? After contacting the seller, it turns out that, yes, this is that very van! O Joy! It had been unused for many years - he bought it, replaced a bunch of parts, got it running and... spray painted it blue! An act of Pegacide! O Sorrow! Heartbroken, I nonetheless visited the seller and took the mythic beast for a test drive. Running smoothly though still in need of some work, I could feel the pure Awesomeness emanating from beneath the thin, flaking coat of rattle-can blue... The Space Stallion could be saved with some TLC, but I came to the sorrowful realization that this is a job for someone who knows cars, has a garage, tools and experience; i.e. not me. This was a few weeks ago, and I have since bought an uninspired van that is much more practical for my purposes, but I remain haunted by my vision of the Space Stallion. I recently received a note from the seller, saying that he is willing to let it go for $2000... I feel like the only person who knows a fantastic secret; the location of a buried treasure... This is a unique historical artifact, worthy of someone who might restore it to it's former glory. I share this story with you in hopes that with your help we might find a good home for the last of the majestic Pegasii.
