Chevy & GMC Vans

Hi everybody,

I am oliver born in year 1971 from Neuchâtel in Switzerland.
I bought my first Astro in september 2002 it is a 1993 LT ext Awd.

after 6years using the astro for my restaurant I decided to sell everythink and to keep the astro for traveling in europe.....

Start to work on the van....
for traveling i need (((bass))) , bed, fridg and space for my montain bike




The bed size is 95cm X 195cm (37.4in X 76.77in)




to save space,i bolted the passenger seat upside down




"Lunch Time"




"my camp" in a Camping




me at the begin, ready for a big trip !!!




Astro goes everywhere, on the train..




... on the boat...




on littel mountain road.....




thru tunnel.......Astro goes everywhere......




I love Alps that turns, turns, and turns




nice place to make camp




slope up to 18%




no more trees up 1800m/ALT(5905feet), is different from the mountains in the USA . you have trees in the mountain at 2300m/ALT(7500feet)




i am very happy AWD work good






The end of my trip after crossing 8 country and 12'700km (7891miles)in 4month

Welcome Oliver. Great pics. Looks like you will fit in here real good. You have a beautiful country. And your english is just fine.

Welcome!

Just awesome!!

(And don't sweat the english. Plenty of folks in our own country don't do as well and it is the only language they know!)

Welcome aboard Oliver and thanks for sharing your pictures with us.

Welcome Oliver. Great pics,,really beautiful country. Don't worry about your English, sounds great to me. I'm from the 96 mile marker in south Alabama,,here is where we have trouble with the language.
Great folks here, all willing to help.

This description is to much,,love it.

Welcome Oliver!
Great pics! And in my completely biased opinion,great color scheme on your van!

Greetings Oliver! Nice road trip!! I am slightly jealous. I wanna take a 4 month 7k road trip!!!

Welcome - looks like a great trip - I am sure the Astro will be up for additional future adventures!

yep thank you for the welcome on your forum!!

It's amazing to see an Astro, especially a vintage one, out of it's normal element.

by the end of the 4 months, you need a shave Oliver ..
