And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.
My friend had the van version the summer of 69 that we used to transport cowhides from the tannery in Newport to our leather shop in Gatlinburg. Wasn't the most dependable ride (junk) but I think the reason he sold it was the bad smell it had from the cowhides.Very rare to see one now. Bubbarust
Corvair Rampside, it has both a tailgate and a ramp on the passenger side with a rubber covered end so cargo can be rolled in and out of the bed. Not many were sold. Al_in_Ottawa

The Bell System had a version with side ramps on both sides.
