    Edit: I should have read the comments for this image. Here is a link to the builder's well done website with a complete DIY manual for the van: The Vanual


    Parked at the Ocean, on a bluff overlooking.

    Some type of newer sprinter style van.

    Well for the dedicated surfer, NEVER hosted at the Oregon coast in January, still had surfers with temps in the 20's!!!

    Don't think it is a "photoshop job" at all..

    Window glass in vehicles are not really "clear" glass, nope, pretty much ALL vehicle glass has a GREEN tint to it.. Unless the glass has been tinted with dark "limo" tint I would expect to see exactly what the picture shows.

    If you don't believe me, just roll down one of your vehicle windows part way and compare with a white sheet of paper. Placing part of the paper behind the glass leaving some exposed above the glass..

    Betcha you will notice the white paper has a green tint behind the glass.
