r and r the fuel tank, rollover valve, and all the hoses. nothing like paying someone to do something and then end up doing it yourself. two new front fenders should be in for my 79 b200 by the end of the week. ordered three windows (34 3/4 by 24 3/4 two (2!!!!) months ago and still waiting for dcmco to come through. not real happy at the moment. found the water leak i had been looking for. had this same issue with the 78 i had. the left rear fender well had a gap where the had wrapped the metal up into the well. after taking a load of old van parts to the dump yesterday (this was the inside that i took out and all the mutilated flares/running boards), i noticed the van is running better than ever nowthat i have 800 miles on the engine.

Been working on mine nightly. Started fabbing up an aluminum fan shroud with built in led lights. One of the toughest things to do on the old Dodges is putting an electric fan in due to clearance issues with the water pump pulley. Between fabbing up spacers for the 200a alternator and reconfiguring the power steering pump mounts, I've been keeping my nights busy.

Still was Dreaming of my van done and in the driveway, but I don't know what happened. It has turned into having Nightmares!!!!! It won't be home for Christmas, it will only be in my dreams.
While I look at everyone working on their vans!! I have an empty spot. In my driveway.

So please everyone do something extra to your vans for me. So I have something more to read and look at to keep my mind occupied. They say it won't be into the booth for several more weeks. Due to Matt not being happy with the prepping.

It is better to have Van'd once in your life, then to never had Van'd at all!

I just found an 82' tilt column with pulse wipers, was the pulse just a plug in for you?
