Re: What did you do to/with your van today?

300 amps might be enough to run all the lights on your rig, cc! Let's see, 12.7V x 300A = 3810W = 5.1 HP, more or less. The alternator end cap is pretty enough all by itself.

Yesterday I parked the Astro in Lot B at the Milford proving ground. I last parked an Astro there in 1996.

Re: What did you do to/with your van today?

Tomorrow I am going to drive the Astro up the hill to GM's Milford Proving Ground for my new job. Congrats on the new job! Now what kind of company secrets can you get us? :-k Van related of course. There are no Astro / Safari secrets, except for the locig behind decision to cancel the M/L platform...

Re: What did you do to/with your van today?

Carpooled to the Chrysler Proving Ground in the Astro as usual. This morning, a trucker drove out of the main gate with a load that was a little too high and wiped out the canopy that was there for nearly 50 years (about a third of the way down this page...) http://www.allpar.com/corporate/chelsea-p...

Re: What did you do to/with your van today?

Drove the Astro to the fabrication shop in Warren, MI where the CG height tilt table (owned by my current employer) is being rehabilitated. Stopped on the way home and picked up a drywall lift to get the garage ceiling closed in so I can work on the Astro in the winter.

hi 97CargoCrawler - do you know the source for the front bars on your cargo van? They look great.
