This is my 1986 Astro. Its powered by a 1995 350 TBI engine removed from a full size van. It isn't quite ready for the road yet, but its close, and it runs great!
I installed diamond headlights and corner lights, and it also has a air dam I picked up at the carlisle swap meet. It may change if I find the newer 95 up front end. I will swap that out too.
This is the back side...The bumper and the hitch will soon be gone, replaced by a roll pan.
The 350 at home in the engine bay.
This shot is of the 86 dash...tattered and torn, it will be replaced with the 92 dash from another van.
This is the old dash removed and out on the ground...It was easier than I thought.
The new dash on the garage floor.
The cluster that will be installed. It is from a 93 suburban. I will have to convert the cable driven speedo to a electronic unit. Not too hard at all.
The van with no dash in it. Now the fun begins!
