My name is rob. I live in fort St John. I acquired this van from a friend a year ago. I had a chance to buy it 10 years ago before him but let him have it. He is a teacher who was letting his mechanics students take it apart and help 'restore' it after a few years of sitting in a school compound 1/2 disassembled he took it home to rest on his property where he let's me keep my bay window parts vans. I brought it home about a year or so ago and started to buy suspension and see what was missing. So far I have a type 3 transmission, narrowed beam, wolfburgwest dropped spindles and trailing arms (I even bought a set of WW air bag trailing arms -just in case)
As I was purchasing suspension parts I was building a rotisserie and looking for the drivers side B-pillar on thesamba to replace the damage that was fixed poorly sometime between 1960 and the last time it was plated in BC (1971)
Here is a picture of the van from 2000 when I first found it.
