Hi Bill,
It's a 67 8 door van. I bought it off ebay about three years ago. It's a project. Turns out it was in a lot worse shape than I thought. That's the thing with ebay. Pictures hide a lot. It's a 240 truck. I don't know the mileage and it really doesn't matter much. Originally it was green then a light yellow and now this yellow. I'm planning on changing the color sometime. I just don't know what it will be. I have a thread started on it showing my progress but it's been on hold for a while. I've been regrouping and planning a second attack on it. I picked up some NOS sheetmetal for it. Hope to move it back up front soon.
