I bought this a few years back from the original owner.  Not sure exactly how far over 100k it is..but he did rebuild the 318 awhile back.

I got a set of jeep wheels and tires for cheap.  

Unfortunately, I had to put 1.5" spacers to get them to fit around the front rotars.

Then we got it painted so it doesn't look like it's abandoned!

We got Line-X to do the interior, including the engine cover.

I also pulled out the original seats (which were stupid contraptions that look like they came out of a boat) and put in a pair from a late model GMC truck that have the sholder harnes built in to them.

Of course we put a cd player and speakers in...a MUST for driving around town.

I can't say I have any further plans for this beast!  Maybe put disk breaks all around and bigger master cylinder!

Cool Tradesman dude! I'm jealous of those rust-free body panels. Damn northeast road salt turned my '78 into swiss cheese. Check it out if you get the chance. Peace.

Hey, NICE van! I really like the idea of the truck bed liner as interior covering! MUCH easier to clean than 70's shag! And don't worry about the odometer......these things just keep going and going! Have fun with it!
