Hello from the Pacific Northwest

[intothewild]

Just wanted to introduce myself, I just picked up my 1995 AWD Astro from the original owner. It's an LT, 4 captains, no 3rd row, dutch doors, all original. Just what I was looking for during my search. This is my 2nd Astro, the first doesn't really count as I paid $800 for it, and used it to move across country, and then sold it.

I plan to use the van as my daily, but it will also become my camping rig to explore the northwest (Originally from AZ). I am going through everything maintenance related first, then it will get new tires, I would really like to do a 4" or even just a 2" lift, but that may have to wait a while. It will eventually be transformed to be a very functional, reliable gtfo out of the big city rig for us.





These are the photos from the PO

Welcome!

Just a note: All Astros count!

Nice, clean van! Definitely do the 4" lift before buying the new tires!

Welcome aboard neighbour.
X2 on the lift .

BTW: I paid about 800 bux or less for a couple of my 5 vans, (400 for my 95awd-RIP) they all counted.

Welcome....where exactly is Dash Pt? My Mom lives out on the Olympic Peninsula. (Sequim) Beautiful country.

Lots of people around the NW on here..I dig it.

Dash Point is a small town by the puget sound nestled between the King/Pierce county lines.

I had to take a look at the map to see exactly where Dash Point is. It sounded familiar... and then I saw it was south of Des Moines! I was born in Seattle and lived on North Hill, just out of Des Moines, until I was 12 and we moved to OR.
