Re: Van Wanted ...
Oh Yea!...WELCOME to VV...lol. When we picked up our 66, it was about 3 hours away and we had to load it our selves...made for a long day. Then traveling home at nightfall with the van on the hauler was whole different kind of fun. Highway cops slowing down to see what was on the back. Glad to hear you made it home safe and sound.

Update ...
Putting a V8 in it now, already swapped out the rear end for a 9" .. I was really lucky on this one, the previous owner put another tank in, had everything rebuilt in the front end etc ,, He couldn't stop the tank from leaking, So I put some hose claps on the filler neck rubber hose that he had never put on,, Amazing how that stopped the leak ..
I put a GM alternator on it and drove it two years before starting the upgrade .. Daily driver ..
