Hello out there in vintage vanner land. This is the twister from Kentucky, I have searched this site for any vans for sale in the Kentucky area and well I guess I may have to expand my dream (or search if I can convince my wife its practical). Since I am dreaming I may as well go for the gold. I am looking for a 1965 (or there abouts) chevy window van. If I have my druthers (and since I am dreaming... why not) i would prefer the motor to be somewhat new, larger radiator, the front end with new kingpins, tierod ends etc. The rear end with new seals and bearings and leaf spring bushings, new universals, brakes, wheel and master cylinders. kinda like the way my old 65 was before I sold it (check out my gallery). No rust is a plus. If I don't have to drive half way across the country to get it would be nice as well.
Of course that is my dream, i am a little more flexible with reality. I am not the young physical specimen I was in the pics in my gallery so doing much of that kind of work is a concern with my degenerating disks and all that. My mind says I can do it, my body says maybe and right now my wife says no (I do tend to listen to her she is a little more level headed than me).
So I guess the real question is; are there any vintage vans in the Louisville Kentucky area? I have seen two in the past two years but neither were for sale. Anyway thanks for listening to an old mans dreams.
God bless you all and safe vannin out there now!!!
