No, but they stopped making nice vintage signs. It is a fact that in the seventies these things became a little bit ordinary  |

How about the original 1950's style AA (automobile association) badge on both sides of the van, or on the front doors. They always had yellow vans with black lettering and wheels etc. You could then remove the front bumper and build a tube steel 'cow catcher', like they had on the front of the old wild west trains in the USA. That would fit in with the industrial/van image but look way cooler than the original.

What I understand about vintage (and what I like) is the kind of lettering you have on your AZU

Or, how about painting it in the dutch AA's style, they used 400's amongst others. Should be easy enuff to replicate & would probably be unique in the UK.
May suit your van more bein a left hooker.
Crap pics, but that was all i could find:
