And the starter and tranny and halfshafts were still there, but based on the miserable condition of the throwout bearing, oil in the bellhousing, and destroyed shifter ball, maybe the tranny is why the van was there in the first place. Also, the body was orange on the bottom and cream on top, with Oak leaves stenciled on at the beltline. The sunroof appeared to still be there, retracted into the roof. Sunroof crank was broken.
