VanMans '63 Corvan ( formerly known as Sancho)
Re: VanMans '63 Corvan ( formerly known as Sancho)
When I first seen the rack , it seemed out of place as I remembered some vans with them on the rear. I vote with most of the other guy's , just looks like a kids bed up there. That being said it's your van and if you like it that's what counts. Also noticed your having problems on gear shift knob selection. Dash looks real nice. Keep the pics coming.

Thanks that rack is long gone. I have some rail mount roof bars instead. Shift knobs? Just have fun changing them out.

Wow, when I responded to your latest post I thought you were just getting into the van. Didn't look at the date of jan.2012. Been awhile since i have seen a single wheeled trailer. The camper is cool.

Hello old friends and new ones as well. I'm in the middle of going through the drivetrain on the van currently. Replacing the differential, clutch, rear main, many other gaskets, carb rebuilds, points, plugs, clean and regrease axle bearings. So he can be on the road more and be more dependable. :)

Of course it's taking longer than I wanted, life gets in the way. And I thought I had parts handled till I went to pick em up and I got a nasty attitude so I left. Gotta order em now and had to wait to do so till I got back from vacation. I'll be doing some work tomorrow and hopefully getting parts on order as well.

Glad you still have the van. Did you get the single wheel painted yet?

Scott I never did get the Single wheel painted. It's been sitting up against the wall for 2 years. I want to get it out once the repairs are done. I really plan on painting it when my bug gets paint.
Thanks Lostboy
