Looks like it has been repainted? Missing rear window washer filler cover.

This van was purchased 8 years ago, with extensive mechanical restorations made over the course of the 12,000 miles we put on it. We followed the "GoWesty" approach to making this an end-to-end perfect vehicle. All mechanical and maintenance records kept, from the new transmission, AC compressor and professional upgrade to R12. It has a new radiator, GW Tires/Wheels, new brake lines, calipers, rotors, drums, master cylinder, and finally upgraded to the GW 2.2L motor, with new ceramic coated exhaust, mass air-flow, and rebuilt LED dash. This van is running like a top, with plenty of power to keep up at highway speeds. It has not been driven winters, so the body has no signs of any rust. New canvas on the pop-top, and original screens for back door and top-vent. We added the dual battery and shore power charge system, as well as a 1000W power inverter. LED lighting strip along side, activated by switching on the converted LED standard rear light. Spotless interior with GW carpet set. Bus Depot awning also included. We have over $55k invested in this van, which was professionally restored by an “award winning” classic car restoration shop north of Detroit. > > Thanks for your help... again! > > Jack R. > N. of Detroit > > > > --- > This email has been checked for viruses by Avast antivirus software. > https://www.avast.com/antivirus
