  • It starts out an innocent video about my excitement to restore a 1969 Chevy G20 Sportvan, but takes a dramatic unexpected turn! Must see!

    I really liked the van, she was clean. I have a 69 108 panel van, my baby has no side or rear windows even in the doors those are solid I prefer no windows or all windows (sportvans) no funky homemade windows

      The van WAS very clean. It turned into a really BAD deal for me too. I never got that Mini fixed correctly. We kept chasing problem after problem and finally just dumped it at the dealer auction. I don't lose money on many deals, It is hard to quantify if I lost money here or not since it was a trade, but I feel like it was a loss! I should have kept the van and fixed it up more.

      @@hooptyWV I am biased in preference as I've had my van since 1991 when my dad gave her to me but good thing you got rid of the mini,although cool looking lil hot hatches they are money pits. Bad investments if you loose money on money. I have 4 suburbans 99,03,07 and my daily is a 2010 . I love them but understand that when something becomes a constant money pit something needs done . That's why my beautiful black 06 dodge magnum wagon rt is getting an 03 5.3 Chevy LS motor and trans swap the hemis don't hold up not going to keep replacing them . My 84 z28 is not a money pit nor my burbans . I will subscribe to your channel if I haven't . Good luck in the future

    Possibly you have a bad master cyl for the brakes. Mine has always had a firm pedal. When steering have your wheels turning slightly forward or back, big difference in effort required. I would drive mine cross country any time. 67 108 manual trans.

    I believe that it is a 1968 van.

      Greg,the 68-70 g10 van is actually the same van, the 67 is the same but they don't have the side reflectors I have a 69 108

      I have no great van knowledge, but 69 was on the title.

      @@hooptyWV 68 and 69 are identical ,he must think otherwise and the title says 69 . My dad got mine new in late 1968 and she is a 69
