MUTINY!!! Dodge trans van!
Alright, so it looks like tomorrow Im going to be the proud owner of a 1988 E-250. Its extended and has a topper on it too.
No side windows, looks like a perfect setup for a stealth camper! After a couple months of looking I found this van with a In-line 6 and 125k miles.
Lets see if I can figure out how to post some pics!

looks like fun 
is the interior already build into a camper, or is that your future plan for it?
that 300-6 is one hell of a motor for a rig thats not too heavy, and since you appear to be into a camper, that should serve you quite well. i've had a few of them, first in an F150, which would burn rubber in 3rd from a dead stop, then in an F250 flatbed (5800 lbs empty), and its a bit of a dog. keep the weight reasonable and you'll love it
looks like you got the single fuel tank, not my preference, but it works. if it was mine i'd look into a second tank
and let us know how that high top does for you. many that i've seen look like a poorly-done fiberglass job, but others appear to be quality
looks pretty good overall! mind if we ask what the going price was

Same as my van 
Full panel, with barn side doors, extended.
Rare find! Both mine and yours! Mines a Diesel, and yours is a 300 6! That's actually the only 2 engines I want in a van, either the straight 6, or a diesel.
Mine has a rear step bumper though, noticed yours doesn't. At least yours isn't high up in the air in the back like mine.
At least you'll be able to walk standing up in yours

Sorry for the late response guys! I ended up checking out the van and the guy admitted it was leaking tranny fluid real bad so I just decided to stay away.
I know im probably going to get shot for mutiny, but heres what I got instead
