I bought a 1969 G-10 Van that is missing the left rear wheel well housing. The old owner blew his tire up doing figure 8 burnouts which destroyed the wheel well as it slammed into the roof of the van. I need to find one but have been very unsuccessful. Is there any re-pops available? Does anyone out in Van Land have one for sale? Thanks, Finn

Joe, I am getting a parts van so we can replace the entire roof of dads 65 Chevy van. If I can salvage what you need from the old roof its yours. The old roof is just rusted all the way around the drip rails.

Finn,
I am parting out a '67 van down here in the Seattle area.. I can cut out whatever you need.
I'd love to meet another WA state vanner, so if you are ever down this way, let me know!
We can move large parts up to you via Vanner express and save on shipping.
email me kookykrispy@yahoo.com

Thanks everyone for the helpful and quick replies. Really appreciate it. Kookykrispy, it's great to find someone so close! Since I'm just an hour or so from you, I'm very interested. I'll shoot you an email and we can go from there.
Rip, thank you as well! If this local wheel well housing doesn't pan out, I will definitely be in touch. Really, really appreciate the help.
