Josh ,
I just gave a 67 VW away to a co-worker i'm on the fence about selling my 61 rat rod . If i Keep Nebula i'll have to move something .


Today i drained the gas tank, changed the oil ,installed a some new fuel line , weeded out the wire harness , cleaned the oil intake . changed spark pugs removed the inner a/c heater ducting ( it was half off anyway ) attempted to put a seat in ( The pedistals are in the way that hold the hydro pistons ) Attemped to start it got nothing , worked on the wiring again , tried to start it again and it turned over . I can keep it running if i poor gas in the carb , i think i need to add more to the tank maybe or check the pick up .
but i had it running today .

Too bad about the interior, but I would say that gives you an excuse to do what you want. You could rig up a really sweet space/future themed interior with lots of lights, especially with the advances in LEDs and fiber optics that have happened since this van was built. More pics please!


Windows- they're what make a van worth owning!

The truck did really well if fact it didn't have any other issuse other then the tires skipped a beat .
It pulled that up no problem . I was more worried about the trailer .
And it got great gas mileage .
