Chevy & GMC Vans

Hey all!

Bought my first astro last Saturday, down in Tulsa, OK. 1997 model with 111,500 miles on it. Had to replace the idler arms on it, to get it to pass MO inspection, but so far I have been able to get almost 20mpg out of it.

Body has a few minor dents, and one small dent in the drivers side rear corner, under the taillight. Paint has a lot of parking lot scratches, and looks like their small kid is an aspiring artist, as there are scratches that were attempted to be covered up with one of those crappy little touch up brushes (like the nail polish stuff)



and with my "photoshop drop" that should become a reality this fall.

Hey, welcome to the club man....Johnny

Johnny, your van sits GOOD. How much drop did you use, and what's your wheel/tire combo?

Thanks!

Welcome to the show. Some great folks here with all kinds of stuff going on

Nice van, welcome aboard!

I wound up selling my Astro around June, 2011, in favor of a 1937 Ford 2 door sedan, as my daily driver. Drove the sedan for 9 months, sold it and bought a F150 that I drove for the past year and sold last week.

I have a deal negotiated on a 2000 Astro, with 83,000 miles on it! The current owner inherited it from their grandfather and it is pristine. Just waiting on the DMV to return the new title, so we can process the paperwork and exchange fundage.

Too bad I sold my dropped spindles that I never used!

Talk about revival of an old thread.... Welcome back!! We will be excited to see pics of the new van!
