Where is the vin I can only can find the one on the drivers side door and it only has 12 #s . I also need to figure out what size motor (250?) what's up with the 12 bolt rearend in a 6 cyl. I'm going to need all the usual parts an more . I guess what I'm saying is HELP . oh I'm kind of thinking I would like the rear door windows to open like the pop out kind in the newer vans

The 12 bolt rear ends are the 3:73 and 4:11 gear ratio types,,,,,lots of power,,,,,but you don't go fast,,,,,,,
Here is a 1970 Chevy Van VIN,,,,,,,,,,,GS150P1000425,,,,,,
G=Chevy,,,,,S=6 cyl,,,,,,,1=1/2 ton,,,,,,,,5=panel,,,,,,0 is 1970,,,,,,, you get an E for an 8 cylinder,,,,,,,a 2 for a 3/4 ton and a 6 for a SportVan,,,,,,,, You can just take those windows out of the rear doors and install the pop out type from a SportVan,,,,,,,however,,,,,,you will probably be sucking in the exhaust going down the road,,,,,,,,,,

very close 119523 the rear and the side doors have old sliders that make more noise than there worth so the pop outs seem like the way to go . As for how it runs well its in need of a carb rebuild and maybe valve seals and rings . One thing at a time on my budget. Thanks for the help .

So what kind of windows are in there,,,,,,,,Stationary ones or something that opens? The SportVans from 1965-70 have Pop Outs that open from the sides. We are talking about windows in this post,,,,,,,,

the windows seem to be aftermarket there sliders on the sides and rear. Some are broke and that don't hurt my feelings they make a hell of alot of noise

Then the question is, did they cut the body to put them in,,,,,,,,,,and would you like to just cover over the windows like only a cave man would like?
