It’s been a big month for Twin City Vans, and we’re so excited to share everything happening in the crew—new faces, new merch, and our upcoming Christmas charity bash. Let’s jump into it!
🚐 Welcome to Our Three Newest Members!
We’ve had a wave of new energy join the TCV family, and we couldn’t be happier to have these legends in our circle.
⭐Tommy Zeller — A True TCV OG Returns!
We’re not just welcoming Tommy—we’re welcoming him back.
Tommy was a major part of TCV in the 70s back in the club’s heyday before stepping away to raise a family and handle life stuff. Now he’s back and better than ever.
You may know Tommy for his iconic Ford Econoline “Lucky 7s” or his internationally-known Zeller Econobar. We’re thrilled to have one of the classics back in the mix.
Welcome home, Tommy! 🖤♠️💎
🔥Del Cottrell — Father of Dougnut & Driver of the Boundary Waters Edition Econoline
Next up, please welcome Del Cottrell!
Del is the father of our member Douglas “Dougnut” Cottrell and the proud owner of a gorgeous Boundary Waters Edition Ford Econoline—one of the cleanest examples around.
Del fits right in with the TCV family and we’re so excited he’s part of the crew.
Welcome aboard, Del! 🔥🚌
Patrick Wobschall — The Man With the Most Vans
And last but absolutely not least…
Help us welcome Patrick Wobschall, the man who (as far as we know…) owns the most vans out of anyone in the group. If you can beat 20+, speak now or forever hold your peace 😅
Pat is one of the friendliest vanners we know and has stories for days.
If you see him around, definitely introduce yourself—he’s as welcoming as they come.
Glad to have you with us, Pat! ✨
🎄TCV Christmas Party for Charity
December 5th, 2025 • 7–11PM • Grandma’s Basement Lounge @ Crystal VFW
Mark your calendars! Our big holiday event is almost here, and everyone—friends, family, and anyone curious about the van scene—is invited.
We’ll be collecting:

The night will include:
