I operate a window cleaning service and would like to purchase an old vintage van to use as a service vehicle. I plan on putting our logo on the side, so would prefer no windows. I am not able to restore the vehicle myself, and would rather have a vehicle that is in good mechanical order with a good body. Thanks for any help. Jeff

eroc: Thanks for response....I had two gallons mixed yesterday, they mixed it by doing a spectograph (Ithink thats what it is called) $135.00 a gallon. Spent all dat today stripping the van, got lucky found a pinter that will let me work off some of the cost of painting the van by doing the stripping and reinstalling of parts myself. I will be posting pictures as the project goes along.

AJAX,
Good to hear that your staying busy. The van i was talking about wasn`t on E-Bay but posted here in the "for sale" section at $600.00.
Finally made some good progress on my `66.
Took it out today for some fresh air and a few pics that have been posted at http://photos.yahoo.com/greyfoxmc .
Don`t forget to click the full size button as to see how much work is left to do before Memorial Day weekend.

The vette wheels fit real nice. The tires are 255/60x15 and fill the wells with nothing hangin` out.
Final answer ? YES !!!
