Not a van but I had to buy it!!

Found this rig on CL within 40 miles, 1994 5.9 12V auto 4x4 w/170k

Seller wanted $7000.00 after a long test drive and a look at the block (making sure it wasn't a 53 block) and a few beers I paid 4,275.00 he's delivering it to me as I type, couldn't pass that up. I figure after 800.00 to 1000.00 I should be able to make 2500.00

Gotta say I like the wind deflectors and side steps.

Would Undercoat or liner spray the side steps though.
