Got a 91 shorty RWD that was sold as a cargo but was customized, so it kinda is bare-bone but I like it. No extra trim, painted bumpers, etc. Spent some (all?) of it's life in Florida til last November, when the previous previous owner brought it up north. I got it from a guy who had it about three months but wanted a pickup. So I got a (almost) rust-free van! The only rust is some surface rust on the engine cradle and some on the hitch. All the panels are SOLID! No real dents, just little door dings and nicks, and peeling clear coat on the roof (boo!). But all in all, a nice little van. Since getting it, I've peeled off the tint from the windows (a lovely shade of purple), removed a poorly spliced in alarm, tore the steering column apart to tighten the 4 loose bolts on the tilt, added my "custom" steering wheel, fixed the slider door handle, replaced the left rear door handle, added running boards, put rally wheels from a 2WD pickup on, and replace a headlight. Lots more planned, and hopefully will be a V8 soon. But enough talk, here's a few pics.
Some when I first got it:
And the new steering wheel. Been in every Chevy I've owned. Got it in 89 for my 80 Camaro, then a 92 S-10, a 93 G20, now a 91 Astro!
And with the wheels and running board
More pics as I modify it, for now I'm just enjoying the van.
