Re: New from Lancaster PA
Oh, I have plans. Just dont have the know how. I drive it daily. I had to tear out the interior because I had a water leak for about a year. But I found new carpets for it online. Going to get them soon. Also found someone nearby that has the seat fabric in stock. So I am going to get the seats recovered. Looking to get some nice wheels for it. Just can decide on which ones. I like these, just done know what size I need http://www.wheelsforless.com/detail.aspx?ID=1370 Getting new tires next week. Also shopping around for someone to give it a nice paint job.

Nice wheels. The add says 4 3/4 inch bolt circle. I think your van has a 5 inch circle. Check before you plunk down your hard earned bucks. ![Dancing \:D/](./images/smilies/eusa_dance.gif)
