I seen a VAN,,,(,part 1) Old posts

Ahhh, the old 'marinate the fuel in the stump' trick...

Remember Don's in CA and lighting things on fire is not popular.

small flame, about the size of the stump and quality burn. just like a pig roast, excellent result.

Mmmm...pork roast...

yah thats scarry ive been in southern Arizona when a wildfire was cooking the landscape. all it takes is a cigerette butt out the car window. one giant tinder box .

Good eye Donivan, from your angle looks to be a pre-67. Know the year? The Van looks pretty good being at least 42 years old.

We had a stump problem and we did almost the same thing. We drilled into the stump with the largest and longest drill bit to get the biggest & deepest holes, then poured DRANO 1/2 way full and topped it off with a little water into all of the holes, not too long after that, that sucker gave up the ghost, basically dried up & caved in.........not only unclogs your pipes & does a real number on all those unwanted stumps!!! Works-for-me!!! I would not recommend roasting pork like this, it get tough & chewy around the edges.

I saw this van a few weeks if not months ago in San Francisco. This is my first video post.

I don't know anyhing about it. just liked the paintjob.



Dave

Looks like it was setting in the wrong hood for to long???

Easy way to kill that stump - drill the holes then fill them with table salt; no mess, no fires, just dead wood. Rv

Coldest new Van sighting of 2009.... its a 2nd Gen Chevy Sportvan 108 I saw while vacationing in Minnesota.



Ugh! Driving around in the snow, sliding on icy streets until they spread enough salt on them to turn them into black sludge. It's a miracle there are any early vans surviving in this savage environment!

Today I happily returned to San Diego! MN was a good minder of how most of the country lives. In the future I'll try not to be so glib when I post about working on and cruising in our vans here in the winter...

Last weekend I saw this Dodge Sportsman here in San Diego:



The young woman driving it said her roommate recently bought it for $500. She got it mainly for going to the beach, but on this day she had it packed up with stuff, helping a friend move. It had a lot of typical beach rust but she said it runs good. It's got a pop top too. I gave her the URL to this web site.

Don ...I think you've spotted more earlies in your area than there are members on the board.lol Looks like they're pretty abundant there.Thanks man.
