    I sold my blue Sportvan!! Yesterday a guy named Ben saw it when I had it parked down by the bay. Later he brought the wife and kids to see it at my house and they ended up driving it home!

    But I don't look at it as losing a van, but gaining another San Diego vanner!! I told him about our site, and to stay in touch, and we'll help him with any issues that may arise.

    Now I can finally focus on fixing up just one van!! Feels good! This summer I'll get it running and on the road!!

    the headliner is pretty neat. makes me wonder what was supposed to go in the rusty abyss above the front seats. i also hit my grille with chemicals and finished it off with a good sanding. the result this afternoon? half a krylon facelift! now i just need another day off, or longer evenings... the sales sheet is actually a sticker above the passenger wheel well. i'm also on the lookout for some blue shag carpeting!
