Up for auction is my VERY NICE 1978 CHEVROLET G20 3/4 TON VAN WITH SLIDING SIDE DOOR. This van is OWNED, BUILT AND MAINTAINED BY A ASE CERTIFIED MECHANIC. The motor is was pulled from a great running 1978 Chevy 3/4 ton truck and the Turbo Hydro Automatic Transmission was pulled from the same truck. The motor and transmission was gone through, cleaned up and installed in the van and it starts right up, runs, shifts and drives great. The front end and brakes are new and have no problems, I would trust this van to drive anywhere so do not hesitate to fly in from anywhere and drive this van home and make an adventure out of it. The ceiling, walls and floor of the van are fully lined and covered , the ceiling and walls with a nice tweed material and the floors have nice carpet. The van was well insulated to cut down oh the amount of road noise, heat and cold entering the van and to deaden the sound of the REALLY NICE (SIMPLE) BUT NICE STEREO SYSTEM. The stereo has a nice Pioneer am/fm/cd player head unit, a pair of co-axil speakers and pair of Bose speakers in the back , a nice conservative amp and a 8" self powered sub woofer. The stereo sounds really good but it's not overkill, just a nice little system, I have never installed an antenna so I always plug my iPod up to it and go. The seats are new, the front captain chairs are very comfortable and they recline nicely. The rear seat folds down into a bed for those long trips. I built a rear deck that I use for storage but it is carpeted nicely and could be used as a second bed. There is ample storage under the rear deck for the spare tire, groceries, tools, luggage or whatever you need it for. There is also a house battery under the deck to run any accessories you might need. The van is also wired for trailer lights and pulls a trailer very well. The air conditioner works great but needs to be charged and I will have it charged before you pick the van up if you use the "Buy It Now" option. The BF Goodrich tires are in great condition with no unusual wear and are at least 75%. The even wear is a great indicator that the front end on this van is very tight and does not wander, goes straight under braking, and no play in the steering wheel. The van also has tilt steering and cruise control. The windows are tinted and all the locks match. The dash is very clean with no cracks. The only thing I can say bad about this van is that it does have some rust spots in but nothing structural or the would effect the integrity of the van. The rust is very easy to repair if you so wish. The van comes with a rare custom chrome tube grill and a spare tire. Please excuse the pictures, there was some trash form the day between the seats up front and I had the wheels and tires to my Camaro in the back. The reason I am selling this van is three fold, I wanted to use it for a shop van but it is too nice, I already have a Ford 1 ton diesel van that will fit that bill and I do not need two vans. Just as a side note I also have a running/driving long wheel base 1976 Chevrolet G20 van with clear title and a 1981 GMC G20 short wheel base factory custom van that runs/drives and with clear title that I will make in to a package deal if you wish. You will be VERY pleased with this van , it is way above average mechanical condition and will provide someone with very reliable transportation. Please check out my feedback, bid with confidence and and bid to win the VERY NICE 1978 CHEVROLET VAN, THIS IS THE ONE YOU WANT. I really hope someone buys it that will give it the loving care it deserves and not strip it out and use it to haul around dirty tools or something. This is a happy little van that looks clean, smells clean and wants to be your best friend or a member of your family. Do not let this one pass you by, this is the one you have been looking for. Please note that I do not know the exact mileage on this van but looking at the wear on the brake pedal I would say it's around 100,000 miles so that is what I put down to satisfy eBay requirements. Mileage is exempt .Thank you for looking at my auctions and be sure to check out my other actions.
