Got it about a month ago. Not just a van this thing has a bed, clothes rack, old tube tv in it.
It needs a lot I work. Will be well worth it to me, at least . Getting it fixes up tune up is going to cost between $2-$500.
But it's a start!
My 4 year old girl loves the thing. She sees the potential in stuff like I do.
Going to take some picks and put them on here from time to time when I can get stuff fixed on it.
Since I've got the thing I've had 2 total strangers come up and tell me they like it. One if them used to own one kinda like mine but it wasn't customed out like mine was.
I got it from my sister for a $1000 she got it free from my dad.
When I was cleaning it out I was just praying I wouldn't get poked.

What kind of van is it? Are we talking a mini-van or the old-style square vans?
 
It needs exterior airbrush art stat! Any type of unicorns, wolves or angry birds of prey will do...

I am wondering why your sister got it for free from Dad but then turned around and sold it to you (her blood brother?) for $1k? Did she make some improvements? If she did nothing to improve the van I would hypothesize that she is a greedy little bitch. Im kidding....sorta!
Congrats by the way!

Yeah you think that's bad. When my mom died my old man blew a crap load on a mint condition Camero. She totaled it within months. Never was able to get behind the wheel of that car. I could of got so much materialistic tail.
Just the way we were raised man. I quit trying to understand my blood a long time ago.
Probley why I'm so opposed to the way they live.



Going to put up some picks later
Like I said she pretty much destroyed the thing. I always see potential in stuff though.

That is exactly what I was thinking, but I see he has already answered the question.

Bang out of order getting a car for free from family then selling it on to close family for a profit..imo of course. I wouldn't be able to live with myself.

1996 custom Chevy 20.
BDaddyK gave me a link so I was sorta able to put up some pics. THANKS AGAIN ( plainview you should put a thank you icon on here, just a suggestion)
Like I said, she tore the thing up, but I see potential in the thing. Would love to take my kids holiday world or someplace. Have a flat screen replace the tube set. Have a console hooked up. There's plug ins already for headsets, one for the tv one for the radio. I'm sure they would need to be upgraded.
All kinds of little compartments, the seats in the middle can be taken out.
So if worse comes to worse at least I'll never be homeless,lol

Was actually thinking all DBZ stuff. Imagine Vegetas final flash, Gokus kamehameha, or Friezas planet destroying energy org. Coming up on the high way, in someone's review mirror.

There is the image insert button that is located in between the smilie and video insert button up top in the post box. You can also add the image tag [img and [/img at the beginning and end of your pic link, just make sure to close each tag.
 
Hah, that thing does look pretty cool actually. With a little bit of paint and some elbow grease you could get that thing looking like this:

So you uploaded to Imgur right? From there you can just right click on the image, choose Copy Image, then come into this thread and paste (ctrl+v).

Ok then hold down on the image, and choose copy link url. The in the thread click on the image icon to the right of the smiley. Paste into that field and hit insert. Should work.

And yes, can't wait to see the Dumb and Dumber To.
