That looks similar to Sahara Gold which is an early factory color and judging by the grill swap, they are trying for an early look (too bad the 60/40 doors are a dead give away). That looks great regardless!
Welcome,Eden. I’m down the road in New Haven area. I, too was up to Nats this year ,first time since the 24th Nats in PA. I drive my two tone blue‘85 GMC Safari with a sbc 305. I got pretty jacked up on this game and while scanning for local parts I found a classic 1976 Vandura Show Van last seen at ‘82 Nats. A few weeks later “Midnight Safari “ was mine ! A good cleaning, tuneup and checkup and it’ll be roadworthy. Let’s keep in touch and plan that trip to Minnesota.haha

I’ve got a 95 G30 with the 454, unfortunately not an extension. I got it in 2005 with 100k and 10k on a freshly rebuilt drivetrain from the fan to the rear axle. Right now as I drive I’ve got 292,498.7 miles on her. She still runs amazing ! I’ve parked her for 3/4 years at a time at least twice now and another time she was parked for 2 years. Always in my barn of course. But I got it with with everything behind the front seats taken out. So just plywood on the floor and the blue steel on irs sides and roof lol. Window van. I put carpet in the back 3 years ago when I started working in the AV world. As a sound man I have my own PA and all the gear a band would need to play a show. So I regularly drive it 3-500 miles a week during the season all over the mid Atlantic and in the Shenandoah valley a lot. All my gear, basically the completely full is about 45-4800 pounds of gear and she [censored] rocks ! Gets up to 70/75 no problem and when it do it seems the air flow gets moving right underneath her and she just floats along. Drives much much more stable and easily with all that weight in it at 70 plus then at 50
