No way, is that the real deal?

Very real.
So cool that it was found.
That should be/ WILL be hanging from the rafters at the RNRHOF in Cleveland .
I'd say it's a bit more deserving than the U2 Zooropa vehicles that hang there although they look cool .

Yes, it is the real deal and the story has really spread over the weekend. A couple of articles below.

It is interesting to me, just for the make and model of the van. I was born in Jan of '69, and although these vans were
supposedly still around when I was little, this is the first time I have actually seen one. Living through the tail end of the hippie generation, I have seen almost every kind of van on the road there is. I love Americana and at my age seeing something old that is "new to you" is both rare and pretty darn cool.

Awesome show! Joe Perry is criminally underrated as a guitarist. Steve Stevens & Vinnie are my only two guitar heroes from the 80s until now. Steve is so versatile.

I am so old, I fart dust and cobwebs.

In seriousness, I am an old soul. Destroyed my knees in the Army in '87 when I was 18, lived in chronic pain since. Throw in heart and kidney issues (all genetic) and many 70 year olds are in better shape than me.
