We have a 1969 GMC HandiVan , shorty, and no side doors. This was an ordered van for a plumbing company. We have removed the 6 cyl motor, replaced it with a 1972 LT1 350. Looking for the rear leaf springs now (no luck). 411 rear-end, completely rebuilt,,now we are getting for the body work. Hopefully any parts needed, will be found..Will post Pics as soon as we can..We had windows in the back doors,,but did find that the side doors from a 1970 chevy van worked perfectly..

Jim,
Step by step.
Click the Host an Image button
Click the Browse Button
Find the file for your picture saved on your computer. I like to change the size option to 640 since the larger format will cut off parts of the picture.
Click the host button
Depending on your internet speed it might take a bit for it to load the image. Once it is done the box below will pop up. Click the Copy button which will highlight all the text. On your key board press the CTRL and C button at the same time.
Click back into the text box here and press the CTRL and V button to paste the text.
If you want to add another picture, click the upload button and start from step one again.
Hope this helps...
