    Just a couple pics of the van cleaned up.
    Now that the drivetrain has been addressed,I can work on the body work.
    Thanks to all that have given me guidance so far.

    Have you measured to see if your buell will fit in the back? We have a 1999 Buell S3 Thunderbolt and a 2007 Buell XB12 Lightning. Both fit but have to remove the windscreen on the S3T. Wondering if your XT will fit...

    My ULY wont fit,but my CB550 or my wifes XB12Scg,or My XB9R will fit.
    I was very happy to find a van that wasnt all bondo,I have very minor bodywork to do....for a 46year old east coast van.
    My front floor had some holes,and the previous owner insulated and plywooded the cargo area,we had a few spots to fix there.
    All in all not to bad.
    Ill post some more pics as things progress.
    Thanks again
