Had a 96 Astro, Forest Service Green with the dutch doors and tinted windows, turned it into a camping fishing rig for here in Alaska. Very low mileage and great shape, loved that thing!
thanks man!! I got lucky with an old Android phone and some app that I don't remember anymore sitting in a waffle House parking lot and that was the result! I think I've been watching you fabricate a fender... very interesting!
The sliding side doors on these Astro vans require muscle even when brand new. They are designed more like full size vans in that regard. That was one reason I went for the Dodge minivan instead of the Chevy.
I've got the GMC version 4 wheel drive okay it's all wheel drive. It has like 40,000 original miles on it. I bought it out of it basically the Smoky mountains from a cable company. They just didn't use it very much. They wanted to use full size vans and they also had a fleet of these is a type of Vans I forget what you call them right now. But anyway it's got the boxes in back it's an enclosed van and it would make a great work van for somebody.
@greasebellygarage it's been sitting in the barn now for about 4 years. Maybe I'll find the keys pretty soon. He looks like you're doing good on the damn you bought. I would prefer Windows myself. I really like the Ford aerostar vans
I had the same fuel pump sound in my 1989 Dodge Caravan cargo van when the van was bare metal before I did anything to it.

I love forest service Green. this would make a great can life van and they run forever... thanks for watching!
Full window cargo van is certainly unusual, and could be a real show stopper.
my mind is wandering with possibilities lol. it's a great little van.
I love your channel intro 👍
