I've just realised why the Mailvan in Saints' Row 2 was named Newman |

Rather Grumman-Olson |

This is not a Grumman Olson Kurbmaster or Kabmaster, it is an aluminum body made by the now defunct Union City Body Company. |

Why? Van with the same body is sold as Chevrolet with Grumman body: Link to "www.uship.com" Seems, that vans with this type of body (mostly not described) and with grill from Chevrolet/GMC were marketed as Chevrolet Step Van/GMC Value Van: http://www.purplewave.com/cgi-bin/mnlist.cgi?120207/A6638/1 http://www.purplewave.com/cgi-bin/mnlist.cgi?080422/4356/1 Link to "keylargo.olx.com" But problem is with these with mesh grill. Some of them are described as Chevrolet Step Van/GMC Value Van: http://twentywheels.com/view/11177-1988_chevrolet_p30_step_van.html Link to "www.thetruthaboutcars.com" (different body, but similar grill) Link to "www.theatlantic.com" http://www.truckpaper.com/listingsdetail/detail.aspx?OHID=4351773 http://cars.smartcarguide.com/listing/28349535/ Link to "asheville.showmethead.com" But here are described under the Utilimaster brand: http://www.usedstepvan.com/stepvan-history.htm But none of them is described as Union City van. -- Last edit: 2013-08-29 19:28:59 |

Chevrolet P-1500 UCBC |
◊ 2017-11-15 08:19 |
No P-1500 for Chevrolet, as this 4-digit model name were specific to GMC until 1980, when the Value Van P-1500 ½-ton model was dropped from the line. This one has the wheel rims and dual rear wheels of a 1-ton version (Chevrolet Step-Van P-30 / GMC Value Van P-3500). The rounded horizontal bar above the wheel arch indicates an aluminum body. IMCDb habits give it the Chevrolet make by default. |

Safer will be list this van and others similar as UCBC Step Vans with proper chassis code - but only when chassis is known (apart from Chevrolet and GMC could be also International, Freightliner, Oshkosh, etc) |

This van looks like all standard GM P-Series step vans with just an after market grille (or it could also indicate a P-Series with a body made by another coachbuilder than UCBC). As explained here, the UCBC body was the standard one for the Chevrolet Step-Vans / GMC Value Vans from 1968 until the early 1990s, so it's really useless to emphasize on it. Anyway, UCBC wasn't a chassis builder until the late 1990s, when the company bought GM's chassis division, so having it as make for a step van made before would be inaccurate. -- Last edit: 2017-11-18 03:20:52 |

It got damaged when Jerry’s mechanic kept throwing JFK’s golf clubs at it. |
