Proud New Owner!

Hi everyone, just stopping by to say to say hello, and show off my new ride. Currently named Junior, he is a lovingly maintained 1994 GMC 1 ton extended vandura/rally wagon? with a 350v8, 4L80E 4spd overdrive trans, 100w solar, 170xxx miles, always serviced at correct intervals, with all records and manuals back to day one. While doing research before the purchase, I actually found the original ad by the 2nd owner on here, I'll be 4th. His user name on here is rustypayne. Is there a messaging feature I missed? I'd love to hear his story on the van. Well without further ado, here's my newest addition to the family! Any questions just ask, I'm sure I'll be around for tips and tricks.

I figured it out. Thanks for help! What kind of van do you have?

Welcome! That looks like a sailboat hitched up to that sweet looking van.

Always peace of mind knowing the vehicle service was maintained, and records provided to support that. Bet you're excited with your new toy!

Haha right? 8000lb towing capacity! I wish it was mine. The van's not even in my possession yet, flying to Michigan Wednesday to make the drive back to PA. Thanks for the response!

Dang I wasn't online much last summer and totally missed this post. Selling our SMB was the biggest vehicle mistake of my life and I feel sad seeing it again. At the same time I'm very happy to see it in a good home.

The first owner of this van was in his late 70's and going blind so he had to sell it. During his younger days he had taught courses on organization and even written books on being organized. Needless to say he had excellent records and I had to do my best to keep it up. The van didn't have any upper cabinets because his late wife was an artist and needed all the counter space for paintings. We had a lot of fun in this thing.
