My new chevy

Did the work at his house today had he gave me my van. Now waitn for my son to get out of school to go get it.

you have the mirrors everyone wants, looks like a very nice van

Thanks it took me all but 7 hours of work and about $180.00 of part I think it was a good deal. I had the day off so why not.

Can never have too many earlies!! I wish a nice 1st gen chevy would hit me like that!

I found a van junk yard this weekend. lots of 70s van but about 30 econos and 10 chevys and one 1969 Dodge 8 door. is the 8 door dodge worth looking at for $400. it runs.

Hell yeah!! super cool and a great deal!!! Oh and if your hanging out at the junkyard take some picks of the vans don't come by that many early's in one place..Looks like it's in good shape??

If that body's good on that 8 door it's a super Deal!!!

The inside

Was it the norm to have 2 different seats like this.

Thats called a Jump seat, it's made to move out of the way for load long stuff

Nice find!

did you guys see those mirrors?

Lucky You..... Great find.

Its a Display van.....so cool. Nice find AND deal for ya! If that was my van I would restore it to original and even keep the jump seat. Most vans were hot rodded in some way so.... original might be cool, by the way that 8 door Dodge is a GREAT deal too running or not. There are not alot of 8 doors out there.

I am not in a great position to buy another, I just got one last week.
But, if that 8 door is a panel and the body is typical AZ no rust, sign me up!
Please post pics and tell us what drivetrain, along with the window count.
I'd even pay a 10 percent finder's fee!

Ill go this weekend and take pics for ya I think it had windows all around No rust and runs. I was going to wait a week or two to talk to the guy I think he is out of work so Ill see if he will take 400 or 500 then. Im going to a van junk yard this weekend to with so friends. Ill take so pic and post them.

I'd buy an all window too.
I just don't care for displays (don't mean to offend, just my preference).

Ok, what do people meen by display van? New to the van world is that half window/panel?

Display is one side pannel and the other side all windows.... I was told they did this for shows. One side is their pannel the other a window van.

The passenger side is the only side with windows on a dispaly van. The drivers side is solid.

They were work vans, used by Sears, Ma Bell etc... I'm thinking the window side was for seeing the bins on the other side

They are safer, since you can check traffic on the right, they let light in so you can see stuff inside while working, and the solid side is for the racks full of whatever.
All good reasons for work trucks back then. Now it would be displaying what's inside for the smash and grab artists, which is why most newer work vans are solid and have locking cages....

8 door 108 panel

8 door 100 with windows in doors

Strangely, I couldn't find a display one to show you, but it would be just like your Chevy.
