hi there, thanks for the replys......the first thing i'm going to have to do with this van is find room in the driveway.......i have the correct split case transmission so i can get it off the ground. then its going to need a new passenger side rocker and some other rust repairs....im pretty stocked how solid it looks, maybe b/c rust isnt so bad in Alberta :) . anyways, im hoping the airspeed community will be able to give me lots of tips and hints when the time comes   ^_^ . thanks agian guys.
