New member....question whether I have a real van or not:(Hel #327909 September 21st 2009 7:59 pm | Joined: Sep 2009 Posts: 8 stranger | OP stranger Joined: Sep 2009 Posts: 8 | Hello...as you can tell from my name, I am an Express owner. Bought it cheap 2 years ago as a beater and ended up loving the damn thing. It is a Southern? conversion. Was R titled and rebuilt. Anyhow, I guess my question is can anybody here point out some nice specimens of customized Express models? I can't seem to find any. Any help would be appreciated | | | Re: New member....question whether I have a real van or not:(Hel | Joined: Feb 2002 Posts: 32,759 Likes: 175 Old Timer | Old Timer Joined: Feb 2002 Posts: 32,759 Likes: 175 | I just got a 99 conversion,chevy express also,working on doing some fun stuff to it.
