Thanks everyone!
It's definitely comfortable and it's literally like I just picked it up off the lot. The elderly couple that owned it made sure it stayed in like new condition and it's been sitting in a barn this whole time when it wasn't being driven.
I already have the tranny out and I'm about to put the 5r110 in today... ha ha Just kidding. I'm looking forward to just driving this van for a little while and letting my family enjoy it before I start building it. My son already loves climbing all over the interior and it's nice to be able to just let him.

Basically.
In all seriousness I'm looking forward to this build being more of a marathon and less of a sprint. I felt like my head was spinning with the hot dog trying to get everything done yesterday instead of being able to enjoy it. So while everything was done right and as it should have been it just wasn't as enjoyable as I would have liked. This build will be a slow and steady wins the race style for my sanity sake.

My kids still haven't ridden in my van. No seats for them. So that's like 6 months now. Kind of sad that way. But if everything goes right, the floor goes in this weekend and I can bolt the bench and belts down finally! I will have the second row buckets for non camping road trips too, but they will be removed for big camping road trips.
Love the setup of your new rig, it's a beauty!! Congrats and enjoy!

Thanks MSD!
Flux - Ya I am planning on using the two middle captains chairs for running around town or little trips and have the rear bench seat/bed removed and then ill just swap that when we go on trip trips.
The nice thing about this van is that all of the seats except for the front two are quick release so it literally takes me no time at all to remove the seats, the bed is kind of a pain because of its size but its still not bad.
