    I agree that it looks great! Great colour, but isn't it a WB?

    While welding in the floor pans, repairing the cowl rust, replacing the bottoms of the quarters, Filling in the sunroof, putting in the commodore VN fuel cap we welded up the side lights.

    try ACR car carriers, i think around $1200 for a driver, but it will be around $2K for a non - runner

    This is my old van that I built and sold recently, wanted another Camaro and had my eye on my Firethorn red van so when I had the chance to grab my new project it had to go, stupid thing to do but done now, my new one will be as close to concourse as I can but will prolly change in the future as I think a 6.0 litre gen engine and manual in a stock looking van would be cool

    Right gotcha. I can understand regretting selling that, it's a beautiful van. All I can say is you have another one now, sounds like you have awesome plans (6.0 lt hell yeh) enjoy building this one and know that you have photos of the green one for inspiration. Have fun look forward to the progress shots.

    Looks great. Hopefully the new owner flips the drivers side headlight surround 180 so its in the correct position. (its the small things that count - or am I just pedantic?)
