OK I Need Some Opinions
Found a G van panel in Arizona and contacted the owner and am trying to work out a trade for my old tri-hull boat (thats what he's interested in). Here are the pics he sent me

Yes they will swap, but you'll have a plate mount on the side. The van looks solid and yes those bumpers have to go. I say go for it

Re: OK I Need Some Opinions
I dont see a plate light! I think he just bolted it to the back door. Besides I want to do a frenched plate in the door anyhow. The mind is startin to run on all the stuff that I would do to it. We havent hammered out the final deal yet, but it looks promising.

Let's make a deal!!!
Arizona vehicles as a rule have very little rust, just a whole lot of dust! If this is the case you may have yourself a real KEEPER As for your little door problem, no problem they are inter-changeable, if you feel comfortable driving by your side mirrors when backing up then your exactly where you need your doors to be, if you need the rear windows to backup or check traffic then you'll need to do that swap thing. With these doors you can "french" away all you want!! I like the shortys & this looks like a really nice, nifty 90!

Re: OK I Need Some Opinions
Wish I could find someone around here to trade a cool van like that for my boat. I like the 6 with the 3 on the tree. Hope your trade works out for you.
