Well it was a great day! I got up early and went to the salvage yard with my son to scout around interiors. Then over to Bandvan's to load the old girl and bring her home.

You gotta love a good look at a big rear end!

Not entirely sure we were street legal (no turn signals)

Lots of looks on the way over and we made so much noise the neighbor behind us came over to see

Huge thanks to Bandvan for letting her go and helping out!

Wow, that trip home was the most reliable trip that dodge will ever have...! LOL

Wasn't that BandVan's first van...? Miss sering him here on the forums, guess he's busy...?

Sounds like it was a good day, what do you plan to do with it...?


when things go bad, you just gotta keep on keepin' on...

@Keep_on_truckin_WNY Im here every day just not posting as much. This Dodge was like my 5th van. Many have come and gone in my collection since then. Had a Grey chevy pretty Identical to my Black one shown here. Also still have my lifted white 4x4 Econoline currently being reworked. I always like having a choice of what to drive to a truck-in.

BBlintpicker you dont have to thank me, I should thank you for helping thin my herd and providing crucial funding for the 4x4 Econoline project. Everybody wins, everybody's excited. Im just happy its in a garage and will be the basis for an excellent father/son project.

I say you paint it white, add Maytag logos and call it "The Lint Trap" ....but Im full of crazy ideas.

I didn't even think about the humor of a Chev towing Dodge- lol!

First I'm going to focus on the things that are going to keep me off the road. I was going to get inspected just to get a list of things I need to do but some of it is just obvious. VT Inspection: http://dmv.vermont.gov/safety/detailedinformation

Looking her over today I think I need to do the following:
Coolant Leak - hose busted yesterday
Carb adjustment - not sure need to play with it
Seats/ Seatbelts
Interior rearview mirror
Windshield Cracked
Exhaust leaking
Rear Corner Panel replaced - I might do temp patch just to get plates
Back Door Pins - Just cause its going to bother me

Cool, Bandvan - I try to get on 2-3 times a week, and yeah, I don't always post every time I'm on... I thought this was one that you had and sold, then bought back, but things get hazy when intrybto remember stuff from long(er) ago... I remember the gray one that you had a build on here for - that was a nice one, and I do remember your white Econoline...

This is a nice looking Dodge - but yeah, make it right with the law first so you can enjoy it when the time comes...!
