Got our van today
Well, I sold my Jeep, and was able to get us a van with a wheelchair lift today.
It's an 86 w/ a 302. It's going to need a little work (brakes, tires, a real good cleaning) but it runs great.
Went down to Portland, OR to pick it up. They brought it up from Salem.
Paid 1k for it.
I think that we got a pretty good deal.

The lift is a Ricon Clearway. The one that splits in the middle to give thru passage.
It is going to be going to the muffler shop soon, I can't hear it running.
They had to put in a new radiator before they brought it to Portland, the one that was in it was leaking around the neck. They tried to pass on the cost of a new rad to me, but I wouldn't let them. Also tried to tell me that it cost $270.oo, I didn't buy that for a minute.

Our remote door opener is not wireless.
There are keyed toggle switches in the passenger tailight, one for door, one for ramp, so it can be opened from the outside.
The other toggles are dash mounted, for inside operation.
The van also has the 6-way powerseat, on the drivers side.
I'm thinking of moving it over to the passenger side, to make things easier for Judy.

Just about looks like blue angel with the same pop up top
it used to be a wheel chair van with the side lift but all that was took out before we got it now we use it for towing the boat and camping .
pfogle how much power did you you gain from that ? I have plans on running dual 2 inch exhaust with headers (off of a 5.0 stang if they will fit if not I`ll be using the stock manifolds) and a H pipe I know I won`t get alot of power from it with the stock carb, intake and cats to keep it leagal but it should be better on gas and with the van being so big every bit of power will help on them big long hills .
