Ive had my '86 for over 15 years. its been my main driver for most of that time. Ive had several other hotrods, sportscars, motorbikes durring that time and have allways focused my intrest on them and just drove the van.
Ive upgraded the van here and there but its never been a project or anything.
now that Ive owned it longer than any vehicle Ive kinda become more fond of it and starting to look at it as more than just the van. all my other vehicles have stole the attention from the van over the years!
all the blood sweat and tears into all those other vehicles that I ended up selling (or worse) now I wish I had poured more of it into my van..
from now on my van is #1 and its definately earned it!
its nice to have a resource such as ASV to go along with it too and its a large part of the reason for my renewed intrest.
thanks
I never imagined the main focus in my automotive intrests would be on my van. time changes everything..
Im allready doing the stuff Ive put off for years on it, and when Ive fisnished all the details on it I hope to find a smooth short cargo and start over except focus more on it than everything it hauls..

Re: renewed intrest
That's good to hear. Just think of all the things that the old faithful van made possible. My Safari, too, has become one of my all time favorite vehicles. Due in part to making it possible for me to haul my balloon all over the country. Very safely and reliably I might add.
