Originally, The Mystery Machine was owned by a family band named “The Mystery Kids”, whose pianist gave the van its initial paint job. After they disbanded, Shaggy Rogers found the vehicle for sale and convinced Fred Jones to purchase it for their group Mystery Inc. Prior to this, they traveled by paying their parents for rides

The Mystery Machine was initially hand drawn for the Scooby-Doo cartoon, meaning that several brands of van meet the description to be converted into a Mystery Machine
