Wow, that is quite a set of mirrors on that rig!!! Lol... I like it.

I do love old vans, and I'm hoping to keep my 2006 until it is vintage/old... It's 11 years old already.

Love the size of these vans. I had a '74 Chevy shorty years ago. Wish it would have had swing side doors like these do.

The smooth ride of coils up front would be nice, but with the height of the body and tall center of gravity of an RV, I think the firmness of leaf springs might make it feel more stable. Just guessing though. I've been driving a leaf sprung 4x4 (SMB conversion) van for ten years so I know they...

Those 19' Thor Majestic RV's look nice. Buy one, swing by U-Joint for a 4x4 conversion and I'd be set to live on the road. Used models listed for sale here: http://www.cruiseamerica.com/buy/search.aspx?Model=19G

I'm curious about the SK van being converted to U-Joint. How different are the front suspension designs? Both leaf springs? I have a friend who has told me several times that the SK 4x4 van his friend owns rides horribly rough. Just curious why you think that would be compared to the U-Joint...

Grant! You are not buying this for yourself?!?

The Ford side swing door windows had the option of being opened. They are hinged at the top. Or, just get the glass from a sealed window and a gasket. Either way the vertical curve is made to fit this body.

Hooper Meet Hooper. He is a rescue dog I got from NOAH near Stanwood, WA. I have had him about two months now. They said he is about 1.5 years old, and came up from California. He is Jack Russell Terrier and Dachshund, according to the kennel. I took him camping for four days two weeks after I...

Not mine, but I'd love to have it: http://nashville.craigslist.org/ctd/5890029085.html Quigley straight axle conversion on a stripped down work van with side swing doors. Nice platform to start with.

Anybody on here knowledgeable about Quigley 4x4 straight axle Chevy/GM vans? What years were they built on the Chevrolet Express/GMC Savana platform? What front axles and transfer case were used? I don't see much about these vans and Google didn't turn up much info. This one is often parked...

:^)

Awesome job on the entire project!

X3 on more info and photos of the Astro. Looks great. I have never seen an Aerostar poptop before so had to Google photos after your post.

I'd love a van meet near Vancouver. I'd cross the border for that from B'ham. A Sunday would be best for me. (I work Saturdays).

Do you know which issue had this article? Thanks, Brian

There were lots of vans at the NW Overland Rally last Saturday. I loved the variety of trucks, vans, SUVs, trailers, and cars! I made a pass around the field and shot some of the rigs that caught my eye for whatever reason. The photos are here: http://www.pbase.com/railvan/nw_overland_rally_2016
