Shoot, forgot to ask about that. Is that NAPA only ? All the 'other' places are closer to us by a large margin.
This area has only ADD / confusion parts, O... Really's? and Autojerks/Asszone.

Nice find Nick - like Joe said, great ambiance pic there... LOL

Low miles to boot and "that's a very Large Van, there, isn't it"... ?

Re: What % tint is the factory glass on 2005 Safari?

Sweet looking Van on the outside... here's to hoping it's Sweet inside also. Sometimes that wood has seen a 'better day'. Pics are welcome. And like the fellows alluded... factory Vans never had any excessive window tint. Conversions- they generally go out as an "Upfitter" type with usuall...

Re: SixSix Mike n' Jeannie's '92 Astro

Randy, is that like a hot glue machine on steroids ? Got a pic or anything ? Sounds like a "Hand-Held Weld Printer", like you would normally see inside a box on rails, 3D stuff, etc. Never heard of Alumibond - but I don't get out much. Just a search away. I will have one / two areas to rep...

Of the ( 8 ) upper Mounting Tabs I worked on, only one of the 2 center Grille tabs have / had any cracks. The bottom White Nylon retainer that I "boxed in" - the repair failed. The entire grill & bezel R & R - I covered over on "The Evil Empire". Overall, very pleased wit...

Re: Acceleration and AC Blower Issues

Sounds very familiar when the vents quit blowing upon accel, but wish I could say that is what is affecting acceleration in general. The vacuum reservoir / ball, that check valve and the line running fr...
