Not sure how I've not known about this sight until now! I'm a self-employed mechanic from North Carolina and own a few vans. My favorite one is my 1970 g10 shorty, it's titled as a 1970 not 1971 for some reason. Something else that seems odd about it, wheel lug pattern is still the small 5 (5x4.5) and has front drum brakes. It was purchased new here locally by the local newspaper and used for deliveries. I bought it from a customer that purchased it from the paper company when they retired it. His wife worked for them at the time so he had first opportunity at it. He drove it for years and my father maintained it throughout the time he was driving it. It eventually got parked on his farm and sat since early 90's with the side door open for the chickens to use at there disposal! Luckily the floor had been covered by wood so it still cleaned up fairly well. It still has the original straight 6 and 3-speed on the column. Originally it was ordered with only a driver's seat but he installed a passenger and I ended up putting a second row for our daughter to ride.

Welcome. Cool van. Never seen a shorty with that many windows. Like the stance.
