Hey Everyone!

My name is Jim, and I just picked up my first van. a 1997 Dodge Ram Van 2500, 127" WB, 318 with a 3-speed auto. The previous owner was meticulous with her and kept up on the important things, but the 'ol girl has 258K on 'er. Runs and looks pretty good (drove from Western CT to Central ME with zero issues), but she's a little tired. That's where I come into the story.

I've been fascinated with the Dajiban builds that they've been doing in Japan. I want to do a "Dajiban Lite" conversion with this - essentially just aesthetics, a light drop and something cool/useful with the cargo area. This'll never see a track day - I plan to use 'er as my business vehicle (I detail the occasional car here and there) and for hauling stuff around.

Looking forward to learning more! Here's a picture of her - not bad for $800, no?
