Finally decided to join since I'm officially Vannin again.. I saved up my bus boy tips When I was 16 and bought my first dodge van an 83? It was an electricians old panel, paid 600 bucks and took It on tour with my punk band that summer From Kalamazoo , mi out east! We named it chuck bisquits! Owned a few in between but have been van less for the last 14 or so years until last week when I picked up 1974 g10 sport van beauville Shorty! Had been parked in a Old dark garage for over 24 years ! And taken over by rats!If I didn't unearth her she (lupe)Was scrap bound ! You won't believe the before pics! Anyway I'll stop ranting for now...thanks for having me. Credo
