New here, been looking around here for a while so I thought I would join, looks like a good place to learn. My first van & my first GM, I am just so happy with my 1994 Astro Ext. conversion as it is in excellent condition inside and out. I need to do a few small improvements as time allows but mostly cosmetic. I have replaced all 4 shocks & a new alternator & battery just to be safe with winter just around the corner. Let me know what you think and what to look out for on these vans. I hope the pictures are the proper size, if not I will do better next time.
Thanks okie1

Welcome aboard! Your van looks like a luxury yacht inside! Very posh! Does the liquor bar rise up from the floor? That's a sweet ride!

Thanks for the welcome. This van is as nice as it looks, it is a pleasure to own and drive, I plan on keeping it for a long long time. I never thought I would own a van, guess I was wrong, go figure.
