VANTASM Phantasm-themed Van Takes Over Social Media
PHANTASM creator Don Coscarelli recently posted an incredible image on social media. A PHANTASM-themed horror movie tribute van!
PHANTASM phans and horror films went nuts and the post went viral on social media. The owner of VANTASM, Chris Morey, even shared some more photos of it and details!
The other side of VANTASM finally revealed!
Morey confirmed it is a 1974 Dodge Tradesman Van. As Wikipedia explains:
The Dodge B series is a range of full-size vans that were produced by Chrysler Corporation from 1970 to 2003. Through their production, they were sold under several different nameplates. Most examples were sold by the Dodge division, although rebadged versions were sold by the now-defunct Fargo and Plymouth divisions. [1]
Although Chrysler would make two redesigns of the B-platform van, much of the exterior sheetmetal would remain nearly unchanged over 32 years of production, making it one of the longest-used automotive platforms in American automotive history. For 2003, DaimlerChrysler introduced the Dodge Sprinter (produced by Mercedes-Benz), making the B-platform van the last full-size van designed by Chrysler; Ram Trucks currently markets the Ram ProMaster (a rebadged Fiat Ducato).
For its entire production run, Chrysler produced the B-platform vans at the now-demolished Pillette Road Truck Assembly plant in Windsor, Ontario, Canada.

Van owner Morey explained that he recently got done with some mechanical stuff and plans to have it out more this Summer and that it lives in Pittsburgh. So after cruising the Monroeville mall be on the lookout for VANTASM!!!
