i have been really having a hard time trying to decide what kind of van i wanted, love the old school 70's look with big rear tires, flares, side pipes, etc but also like the looks of the 4x vans,
So tonight i went and picked up a 92 chevy van, its not a shorty but from what I've seen it doesn't have to be in order to look cool.
i'm thinking a set of flares, 15x10 wheels in the rear, 15x8 in front, not sure tire size yet, but largest i can fit in the rear. side pipes of course, interior is going to follow close to my boat interior. paint will probably match the boat also, maybe boating mural on the side.

Cool! Once you go van, you never go back. Keep us posted with pictures and updates.

The van looks solid. You're plan sounds spot on.

that looks way cool
i'm putting a 383 in my suburban right now, the van only has 90k miles so hopefully it will be awhile before it needs a motor

Sooooo clean! Love it man. Nothing wrong with a long box at all, more room just means more fun. Thanks for sharing.

Thanks, i think it is finally getting to the point that i'm going to start enjoying it and not modifying it

Awesome looking ride, love it!!

Sweet ride you got there.

I really like that you went with the longest versions of side pipes, it really fits great on long wheel base vans and fills that space in.
