Nice to see some pics of this one too.

Did you paint the dash white or did it actually come in white?
Posted By: rizzman Re: The YIN YANG VAN - February 24th 2011 12:50 pm
Hi!everyone. I was thinking of paint, but I dint think it would look good ,so I got some vynole
and coverd it . doing the bottom haf in black, the top of the doors white and the bottom black,
the headliner in black . Trying to keep that black an white thime.

Posted By: Superbeast Re: The YIN YANG VAN - January 12th 2012 8:11 pm
Van looks great! What happened to the ying yang on the back?

Chopping one of these would be a major job. The bodies have so many curves to them that it would take a lot of extra 'stretching' of metal, plus the glass is all tempered so it would be difficult to cut.

I'd take on the challenge though if you got the cash! grin
Posted By: rizzman Re: The YIN YANG VAN - January 13th 2012 1:20 pm
Hi! Ken. its better plain, don't like to advertise.
as far as choppin it looks good on paper , but your right it be hell to do.
she runs good ill leave it alone.

Posted By: josh_performanceinc Re: The YIN YANG VAN -- IS DEAD - March 25th 2012 6:55 pm
What about selling it whole? You might make as much or more with no effort taking it apart. Just a thought.

Real bummer man sorry to hear. frown
Posted By: greyhairedjoe Re: The YIN YANG VAN - March 25th 2012 7:51 pm
Sorry to hear ...that sucks...if you decide to part out send me a note-lotta parts will fit my 97...will make it live on with transplanted parts.

Posted By: Superbeast Re: The YIN YANG VAN - March 26th 2012 11:00 am
Sorry to hear that buddy. If it does get parted, I would be interested in the rear shell. All I need is the body shell. Would almost hate to see it parted though.

Posted By: tumbleweed Re: The YIN YANG VAN - March 27th 2012 11:38 pm
just a idea how much to fix what is wrong with it. Not a lot of mileage on this one. I had mine engine replaced at 238,000 with a 5.4 from a 5.0. But when i replaced that i went all the way and turned this van into a full custom from a street custom. Still waiting to see the final outcome. I dorpped the van off in October and been told it would be ready my mid May. Keeping my fingers cross. I will be at the Ford Nationals in Carlisle with this van. Anyway try to sell it whole before parting it out.
