Mike and Frank (American Pickers tv show) bought the van that Aerosmith toured with in the band's early years, and got it working again, returning it to the condition it was in when Aerosmith last owned it. Now the band checked it out



I posted about the van being found https://justacarguy.blogspot.com/2018/08/aerosmiths-original-tour-van-has-been.html last year.

Aerosmith apparently lost the van after a falling out with its owner, Mark Lehman, their old driver and live sound man. The band recalled Lehman fondly, with Kramer noting that he always went above and beyond and made sure the van was in good working order.

The band members marveled that the artwork and band logo painted on the side of the vehicle survived all the years in the woods. American Pickers opted to restore the van to the condition it was in when Aerosmith last rode inside it, as opposed to what it would have been brand new.
