Everything of value had been removed long before it was scrapped. But it did belong to a vanner. I looked up the run on Instagram and I did see several pictures of the van before it was scrapped. It was a decent rig. There was also a 1982 Dodge Ram van. Thing was about as long as a Maxi but wasn't badged as one. All the interior panels were plastic. Has some decent swivel seats inside. I pulled the digital clock out of the overhead console. I think it needs some cleaning but so far it isn't working.

They don't sell parts it's basically strip and crush for everything there. Found this old dodge van was the only other van besides a rotted 85 chevy conversion van. This one looked complete, but didn't ask the owner for details. It was locked up and looked like it was being used as a parts shed so it'll probably last a few more years there. | | | Re: Some Junkyard Finds | Joined: Sep 2019 Posts: 1,510 Likes: 172 Master Yard Rat | Master Yard Rat Joined: Sep 2019 Posts: 1,510 Likes: 172 | I explored a yard today I haven't been to in about ten years. They had several pre 1981 G10 vans off to the side waiting to come come in. Lots of grilles and tail light conversions. I found a pretty stripped out Dodge and a third generation Ford short panel. Someone had beefed up a 5.0 with a Weiand Stealth intake.

It has portholes and some other stuff.
