Minnesotan... own way too many minivans and some other "cool" junk. I have a dashcam or two and I am often at the local U-Pull yard. You might see some of that here as well as other related adventures.

Reviving this 1993 Plymouth Grand Voyager SE after 18 years abandoned | Part 7 | 2024 FINALE!
This 1993 Plymouth Grand Voyager SE had been parked up on a property in south central Minnesota longer than its been on the road, which it last was in 2006.
I paid $100 for it. We were able to make it run and drive again... but can we make it nice?
This episode... We get the new interior put in and finally put the van back on the road where it belongs after 18 years!

Lets take a look at this 2008 Dodge Grand Caravan SE with over 445,000 miles!
มุมมอง 2.7K12 ชั่วโมงที่ผ่านมา
Join me for a quick walkaround of this super high mileage 2008 Dodge Grand Caravan SE. At almost 446k miles... this van has seen some things, and it shows! Twice wrecked, super rusty, exhaust leaks, etc. However, it does have a relatively new transmission under the hood. The engine is original to the vehicle, and the transmission was replaced at around 360k miles.

333K MILES! 2000 Chrysler Town & Country LXi at U-Pull Salvage Yard in Minnesota

Recorded 11/29/2024 at U-Pull-R-Parts in East Bethel, Minnesota. This van is quite the assortment of colors! And for good reason. This 2000 Chrysler Town & Country LXi has over 333k miles and it shows. It is rusty as can be... but the interior is nice. I didn't catch it till I was editing but the reason the seats and steering wheel were so nice is because the previous owner had swapped them out...

A project a long time coming... this is my 2005 Chrysler Town & Country that has been in my family since 2009. It has over 300k miles on the original drivetrain... albeit reverse gear has been long dead. We've got some maintenance I've differed for awhile, some steering issues up front, and the biggest task, a heap of bodywork & rust to correct. Lets see if we can make this poor old van better ...

Recorded 11/29/2024 at U-Pull-R-Parts in East Bethel, Minnesota. This 1998 Dodge Grand Caravan SE is a pretty "normal" arrival. Nothing too special, midrange optioned van. It does however, have a really weird rusting pattern that is not like most of the vans we see. Thanks for watching! :)

The ironic thing is the carpet part reminded me that I need to do this with my trunk carpet or get one from U pull because I have a stain in my trunk from the original owner spilling something in the trunk and no matter what I do it doesn’t go away because it’s probably deep in the cut up t shirts and rags stuff
445k on a 3.3L and 360k on a 41te is absolutely AMAZING! You guys are role models for every mopar owner!
I have a 2017 with 186k on it still runs good. Oil filter housing and one rocker has been replaced.
No trim level base van but upgraded blacktop wheels? Weird
@@MrHemi4spd-r1u gotta look good while driving poverty spec!
@MNMoparMinivan id trade all the electric doodads in a heartbeat for rust free rockers and dog legs like that one has.
@@MrHemi4spd-r1u agree!
Love the van, all of them but time to put a rattle can paint job on the hood.
@@MichaelMcFearin haha we will see!
this van has come a long long way!
@@thestuffz I know right!
Its Really nice to see this van get TLC. Also you have great taste in music, I love Bryan Adams and Bon Jovi!
@joshdevdoss9041 she turned out good! And thanks!
The painter's tape windshield seal and license plate rocker patch are indeed a choice combo. I recently picked up for cheap a 96 Eagle Vision with the 3.3. Runs very good, but the water pump, which was original, was leaking. Sure enough I broke off one of the bolt heads. I'm not sure what clearance is like (I think I remember you mentioned a bolt was broke off the TC) but I got one of those right angle angle drill attachments with the flexible line, and it worked great. Had it drilled out in maybe 10 minutes, then just ran a bolt with a nut in place of the original. But those cars have good access, one of the reasons I really like the LH cars, longitudinal engine.
@98-SR5 Nice pick up, and good fix! The pre 2001 3.3s have *some* access in a pinch. I tend to just pull the cover off anyway because I've learned i don't want to mess around with that. I don't have usually have the necessity to need it fixed immediately. And/or i needed the cover off anyway or it needed resealed.
This the newest Chrysler van of any kind I would buy, though think the Chrysler, and their other brands of, vans, peaked in 1991-1995
All the years of McDonald's and coffee and coke lol
i wonder if seafoam would help the lifter tick
@@rileyblizzard2 i did try that!
I believe they sell a spray on fabric and vinyl red dye that you can use on the carpet.
Oooooh man!!! I’ve been waiting for this!!! Saw in my recommended and yelled “YEAH!” Super hyped to watch! 😊
@@woodythemaan7820 haha I am happy to hear it!
I would make a bed in the back and use it for camping
It is nice to see turnip's interior looking good! If you put a little paint on the hood and the fender then turnip would look almost new! You did an amazing job especially considering how bad it was.
Awesome, this is going to be my Sunday evening viewing! Thanks!!!
@@doctorhugocat sweet!!!
Keep saving these old vans 👍
@@Trak00ma will do!
Agree with Trak 100%, plenty of auto channels out there keep to your mini van roots and success will follow.
@@MichaelMcFearin You don't want me to start ls swapping every square body truck I get my hands on??!
The van came out nice
@@alecplasencia7667 thanks!!
Congratulations! that's a hell-lot of work, but i bet well worth it. Nice job.
@@thevintageaudiolife thanks!
Wow! Just wow! I don't even like (mini)vans, but after seeing the interior, even I would like to have it, and I'm a Ford man. Maybe Rislone will help with the ticking. A magic eraser would probably really clean your steering wheel. Maybe if you need a new seat motor, I wonder if the motor out of a Dynasty, New Yorker would work. Great Job on this
@dancline2143 It turned out great! Good suggestions. I have a working power seat but it's been made into a garage chair and I'll have to disassemble it to get it out lol.
Morning can’t believe how the Inside of your 93 caravan looks but get your window fix ok but thanks for the video
@@michaelwyatt8030 haha working on it! Thanks Mike
Does it have A/C? 😊
@@victorbaird8220 i have not tried to charge the system. I did reseal it when I had it apart.
And to think I threw out perfectly good used license plates.
@@jamespn that's literally a crime
Have a excellent week everyone 😁😊😁😍
You too!!
Please make a video of the Top 5 things you like about each van 😊😁😍
Amazing cleaning and refurb. Love that red interior. Wished our 2015 T&C came with a red interior. Just an endless sea of black...
@jasoncumbo2880 thanks!! Got to bring back the interior colors of the 80s and 90s.
Dude. I’ve driven these vans for 30 years. Other than the weak tranny’s, these are the best. Both for work and comfort. Can’t wait for more content!
Very good job very proud of you amazing work!! So when are we going to set up a time I come pick it up? 💰🤑
@@peachyclean93 as soon as the $10k check clears.
@MNMoparMinivan haha, you're funny 🤣💀
You should bypass the radiator transmission cooler and put in transmission cooler from 2001 to 2004 Dodge caravan
@@peachyclean93 good suggestion!
@@MNMoparMinivan yeah they work amazing!!
I have four of those dash-mounted Infiniti speakers kicking around somewhere I think they're in my closet in a shoebox I'm going to ask a question I'm not accusing you're not using armor All wipes on that dash are you?
I already saw your other comment ;) Armor-All is just a brand. They make all kinds of products. What I was using was cleaning wipes. 18 years of junk on thst dash and the dish soap wasn't cutting it.
@@MNMoparMinivan yeah don't get in the habit of using armor All that stuff is no good next time you could use Murphy's oil soap that works great!
@@MNMoparMinivan or I use leather cleaner and protectant not from armor All
All the damage underneath with the beams and everything was that from the windshield leaking?
@@peachyclean93 the entire top of the windshield was unsealed. Let a lot of moisture in. Turned the thing into a sauna in the summer I'm sure.
@@MNMoparMinivan wow yeah that's what you said the previous videos yikes!! Hey she held up pretty good could have been completely rotted away!
@@peachyclean93 Yeah that would have been a bit of a problem. Blue van the 90' was actually worse off than this one.
@@MNMoparMinivan 😭 I'm glad you caught them in time
@peachyclean93 don't worry I would have hacked it back together either way.
This is the final part
So my mom has a 08SXT caravan and as of right now it has a very bad whining noise when you first accelerate I have some videos of it on my channel and some cold start videos, but yeah, I don’t know where the noise is coming from though I’ve looked everywhere
@ThatFoxyGamer16 clearly that's the turbo spooling!!! Just kidding. That is a really weird noise.
4th gens are the most nostalgic for me. But I find these 5th gens cool too!
All those miles how many transmissions did you go through?
@@leehyer4916 original transmission was replaced with an oem reman at 360k
5th gens are my favorite simply because i grew up in one, mom bought an '09 T&C Touring brand new and boy were road trips amazing in that thing. she bought herself a 2025 outback so her van has been passed down onto me. absolutely love these things
Very nice!I have a white base model ‘08 T&C with the 3.3, only problem with the van is the fuel gauge is stuck on full, I did the gauge reset and that didn’t work. Any ideas on a fix other than having to lower the tank to replace sending unit?
@@Neotank22000 stuck full sounds dead accurate for a bad sender.
Would u wanna sell the 2008 caravan? I have one and need a good parts van
@joshknight1665 haha I doubt my dad wants to get rid of it.
