    Good luck on the 79 Chevy G20 van I own a 78 Im fixing up. I Had a heart attack last week so Im have to heal up a bit before I work on it again. Its awesome you got some slot mags to go on it. Min was done with carpet in all of it and Im working on getting it all out. I hope you do something cool with the old beast. I just subscribed to your channel.

    Cut out the RV /Conversion Windows & weld in Original Sheet Metal. Port hole Windows are Cool but Windows in Vans are Lame.

      I did end up removing the camper windows. They were kinda leaky and I didn't like how they looked either.

      I'd really love to have a van... As long as it's windowless for the most part... Of course I don't want to have windowless in the back doors for my own safety reasons........

    Hey man, am I correct that these are two chrome bezels for the old tail lights in this box of spare parts? Is there any chance you sell these two? You could make a german Chevy Van lover really happy. Currently rebuilding my 90s Van and I already have the tail lights, buts its impossible for me to find the bezels and I need to have them, looks stupid without them :) you would not need to send them over to me, I have someone in US where you could send it to

    Awesome looking van, how is paying for the gas going ($3.57 Reg. down south) and is it worth it? love to get one but the prices of gas is stopping me.

    • @area_61
      @area_61  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Thanks. She's not too bad on fuel. About 14 mpg, which isn't too bad for a big old square with a v8 in it.

    Anyone know the average value of a 1988 G20 Vandurban with 96,000K? Original leather seats with bed. ZERO rips.. Is there a site that values older cars/vans? I know KBB will not go back that far. Any help would be grateful...

    I’ll take that “horrible” octagon steering wheel off your hands if you want to sell it?
    And maybe those Thrush mufflers as well?
    Let me know!

    • @area_61

      I've actually grown to really enjoy the steering wheel. I still think funny, but it's very fitting for the van.
