Again, that looks great. I really like how the interior turned out. Be a fun van at intersections to play with the tuner cars.

Thank you Beast_Lee Did some more interior work. Previous owner cut out some of the very rear headliner that hung down, used Astro to haul flat track bikes. Instead of replacing the headliner, we bend up some aluminum to fix the gap and painted to match. Before:  After:   Cleaned it up and tokk some better pictures    LOOK'S LIKE A HOTRODVAN TO ME!!!COOL

She smiles ear to ear when I stomped on it.
Did a 150 mile round trip last weekend, averaged 19-20 miles per gallon. Really awesome, roughly 2 ton, 310 hp, 60-65 mph on hiway, tubbed and riding in style.

It has an all aluminum 5.7 LS1 from a 99 Trans Am. 310 horse stock, still has stock exhaust manifolds and catalyst convertors.
Hopefully, this winter I can add some more hp. Cam 375 hp, 100 shot NOS 475 horse, port & polish or better heads 575 horse. The LS are awesome motors & dont take much to make good horse power.
