It took almost $100 for me to fill up my GMC and it will cost more to fill the '94 Dodge. For my budget it's getting out of hand.
Me and wife have started walking in the evenings and lo and behold what did I find at the end of my block last night? About a 84-86 Caravan PANEL van. No windows except the rear gate. I'm gonna leave a note and see if the guy wants to sell it.

But I think it was a tick newer. Maybe a 91-95. If I knew that my OT at work would be around for a while, I wouldn't bother. But it will end eventually, I think. It better, or I am going to go insane. | | | Re: Caravan in my future? | Joined: Jun 2003 Posts: 12,898 Vanner | Vanner Joined: Jun 2003 Posts: 12,898 | Hmmmm save on gas, depending on the motor, spend more on oil Well, George is a master for V-8,ing those...bring it to vanfest and awaywego I may have a 273 laying around

Leaky engines, but I got good at sealing them up. I can pull one of these engines in about an hour. No biggie. Much easier to seal up on a stand.

I have yet to see a later model Caravan done half as nice as this in person. they definately have potential. | | | Re: Caravan in my future? | Joined: Aug 2005 Posts: 21,211 Likes: 25 Supreme Master | OP Supreme Master Joined: Aug 2005 Posts: 21,211 Likes: 25 | Well I went and looked at that '85 Caravan.
