by Van crazy Thu Apr 25, 2013 5:34 pmI just wanted to say thanks to every one. You have been a great help with me finding my early van. Just got it the other day I think I got a great deal. $750 solid body non runner cobbed up body work on rear door but will fix soon enough. It was sitting in a kinda swamp for 3 years the guy had dreams but never came threw. Now its in a nice warm garage surrounded by TLC have saved it all thanks to you guys.

Will do I started work on it as soon as I draged it off trailer. Right side hubs locked up wasnt going to drag it around any more. Today was going to tackle getting it running but carb shot. Fuel line stripped inside carb. On ebay looking for one as we speak. It rolls now.

Van crazy, please start a new thread in the Member's Showcase section with pictures and your progress. It's a great way to document your work and show off your van.
Remember to run it first from a separate gas can. The tanks on these things always need work and have junk in them. Have an extinguisher handy too!
