    Soy amante de las Dodge Ram van, en Venezuela llegaron Miles de ellas, en su mayoría fueron y aún siguen siendo usadas para transporte público y muy pocas se conservan en su estado original, saludos desde Venezuela

    I have a 89 dodge roadtrek independent which includes a generator and shower. You have a great layout. We have the blue interior too. Good luck with it. We love ours.

    Great van tour, we have a 94 dodge roadtrek and live north of ottawa. Are you guys going to be creating more van video content? Also if your roadtrek has original paint, i would think hard about repainting it. Unless your willing to put 4-5+ thousand into a proper paint job you will likely be lowering its value. The fibreglass roof in 1989 had the same body colour so yours has likely been repainted. The striping on the body seems to be period correct so the original paint theory is strong. Same with interiors, roadtrek people are not keen to see modern interiors and prefer subtle upgrades instead. I do not entirely agree with all that is said about restoring vintage vehicles, but its at least something to be considered. As an example we converted the seat behind the driver into a dog bed and we were careful to remove the original structure without damaging it and have stored it in case we ever sell the van....it can be reinstall, or let the new owner decide. Same with our composting toilet, we kept the tanks so that a new owner can opt to reinstall a new aquamagic toilet if they want. There is a strong vintage roadtrek Facebook group you likely are already part of, if not let me know, i can dig up the link for you.
