a bit of info on myself: i'm 24 years old, broke and in college currently finishing up a certificate for automotive body repair and refinishing. i work at a vintage motorcycle parts distributor for british bikes, triumph /bsa /norton. i own 9 bikes and my van is my only four wheeled transport.
i bought my '63 back in 2008 and have been enjoying every minute of it. i figured a running, titled vintage econoline was too good to pass up for 1000 bucks. since i bought it ive only had to replace a fuel pump and have the generator rebuilt. its a real trooper and awesome bike hauler. much to the dismay of my "eco-friendly" schoolmates, i drive this thing as often as i can to school/work.
thats about it for now. im ready to really start making some improvements over the next coming months. ill be sure to keep this thread updated if anyone is interested.
