I think you got a rare one there, but I'm not sure. The side doors where a option. There's a few out there with doors on the drivers side, but most have them only on the pass side. Hard to tell from the pics, is there any indication on the inside that they were welded up? I say take care of that van and find out more about the doorless ones. Nice score!

Yep, they are often referred to as "no doors" even though they have the front 2 and the rear 2.
If they have doors on both sides they are called "8 doors".
Then you have the no window or "panel" which may or may not have the rear doors windows, the "display" style with windows on the passenger side, and the "window" vans which may also be termed wagon or sportsman.

I saw the drivers side picture of this over on the vintage vans forum. Are you thinking of buying?

I did not think there was such a thing... My brother has one just like that, though with side doors obviously.

Yeh Jeremy, the guy I bought it from called it a panel van... Was definitely a work type van, has the visor and arm rest deleted on the passenger side...

Congrats Hate, welcome to the club.
The no doors are pretty rare, but as RodStRace showed you, they can be found from time to time.
I had a "display" type and replaced it for a panel van (but with pass side no window side doors). For practical purposes, the side doors are very useful, but of course, no doors look cooler

Enjoy,
Ran

Gotta wonder how many of those custom painted wagons had the doors filled in. Sweet vans in either case. Have fun and good luck with your rare find. Are you planning on modifying or back to stock cause of rarity?

Well... Rare doesnt alway equal valuable... I bought it with plans of either slamming it, or putting a big block in the rear for a weelie popper... I put it in the classifieds, just in case some purist saw it as the holy grail and had to have it... but no responses yet...
