    I really like the simplicity in these older vehicles. I don't need all the stupid bells and whistles in newer vehicles.

    Congratulations on finding a clean van. Now you can make a camper van out of it, & build with the quality stuff that won't let you down when you need it.

    I graduated hs in 1996, i bought my first car my junior year and it was a 66k mile 1983 chevy G20 conversion van. It spent its entire life in the southwest so not a spot of rust. Blue shag carpet, the whole early 80’s kitten caboodle. I have so many good memories with that thing and I really need to keep my eyes open for another one one of these days. I want to do a modern drivetrain 4x4 conversion van now.

  • @bigguy1403
    @bigguy1403 ปีที่แล้ว +5

    I dont think i would start pulling it apart for camping its way to nice and original.

    12:41 The 2nd row of seats may fold forward flat. It'll give you the room to lie flat on each side (you may have to take the headrests off). If you don't put them all the way down, they can be lounge chairs looking out the back door. I'm so excited for your future adventures.
    Congratulations!!!

    In the 70’s we’d take all the rear seating out and put in wall to wall shag carpeting lol!

    Hey Mike, I smiled the whole way through this 😀 What an awesome Van!! I absolutely love it! Glad you took your time to figure things out as usually that’s when the answer appears and usually something you didn’t even know you were looking for! So happy for you!

    I had a chance to buy the GMC version of this van, a couple years newer, with only 66k miles on it, but couldn't pull the trigger fast enough. I liked that it was the shorter length. It was definitely lacking in power, but that will be better gas mileage. Looking forward to the build!
