About the van; unfortunately it isn't the Mystery Machine (although I'm sure that the idea came from there). It's something my 25 year old daughter gave me for Father's Day last year, that bounces up and down, and plays the song "Walking on the Sun". BTW - the top, corner posts and tall posts on the back are all surplus from Disney. The top was part of a "surf party" backdrop, and the posts are surplus from the Polynesian Resort. Granted, it is more beach bar than old style tiki, but with Trader Vic's now opening a beach bar I can claim a certain "tikiness". :) Ed
