Searching for something delicious and refreshing? This 1965 quite rare and hard to find GMC Handi-Van, decorated in Coca-Cola® livery, could quench your automotive thirst. It is proudly presented by MotoeXotica Classic Cars. A California Blue Plate van, this vehicle spent at least part of its life in the Golden State of California and is currently on a California title.

Built in GM’s Pontiac, Michigan factory, it left painted ivory with standard trim and a 4,500-pound gross vehicle weight rating (GVWR). Now, it is painted white with red trim and accents. The paint and trim are in very good conditions with unique touches like red visors over the headlights, red fins on the side vent windows. The van’s glass panels are in very good order. The lights are in good shape, crack-free and clear. This van rolls on Cooper Cobra Radial G/Ts, 215/70R15, with plenty of tread and the wheels are in excellent shape, with custom, red rally wheels and dice-shaped tire caps for a touch of whimsy. All of the body panels are straight and solid with Coca-Cola® banners on the side doors, vehicle sides and right rear door. The majority of the Coca-Cola graphics are vinyl and can be easily removed if you so choose. The cargo bay is in very good shape. The bumpers are in very good order. This van still has its original floor pans and the windows all have new window rubbers. This van is restored very nicely overall and has a great stance driving down the road!

Under the center console cap is a nice running 230 CID inline six-cylinder engine, connected to a two-speed Powerglide automatic transmission. The engine has been detailed in red and white to mirror the exterior finish. The engine breathes through a custom two-into-one exhaust system. This imparts a good sound without being annoying. Very few of these vans were produced with the automatic and it is much easier to drive without having to shift the “3 on the tree” manual transmission.

Inside, this van has been treated to a full interior package revamp. The original seats are wrapped in two-tone red and tan and are in very good shape. The original, two-spoke steering wheel was also treated to a custom wrap and is in very good order. The van is fully carpeted in black from front to back and is in very good condition, along with all custom made red and tan interior panels plus a full headliner. The horn is inoperable and there is no inside rearview mirror but the white metal dashboard is in very good order and in case you forget what you’re driving, there are Coke decals above the stereo and on the glovebox door. Bonus features include an original Coca-Cola® cooler that has been customized into a speaker, Coke® bike, original Co-Cola bottle trays and a Coca-Cola® stool. Propped against the right rear fender is a full-size spare tire dressed in a red cover with a Coke® logo and tagline attached. Finishing off the interior is a Clarion AM/FM stereo system with CD player and speaker in the cooler.

Competition to this GMC in 1965 included Chevrolet’s ChevyVan, Ford’s E-Series Van and Dodge’s Ram Van.

This car is currently located at our facility in St. Louis, Missouri. Current mileage on the odometer shows 60,140 miles. It is sold as is, where is, on a clean and clear, mileage exempt title. GET OUT AND DRIVE!!!
