Van Used by Rock Icons Aerosmith in '70s Found in Woods

Long before Aerosmith filled stadiums with tens of thousands of fans, the band traveled New England in a tiny van playing to smaller crowds. That dilapidated van has been found in the woods of a small Massachusetts town. Mike Wolfe and Frank Fritz, hosts of the History Channel show American Pickers, located the van in Chesterfield, a town of about 1,200 residents 100 miles west of Boston. The property owner said the 1964 International Harvester Metro van was there when he bought the land from someone with a connection to Aerosmith. Ray Tabano, a founding member of Aerosmith, confirmed it was the van the rockers used in the 1970s. The pickers paid $25,000 for it. Wolfe says it's "a piece of American rock and roll history."
