You say you don't make s*** from CZcams that's a shame because I love your contact You put a lot of work in bringing them cars back to life I love the results!
I make a little but no where near what the big guys make.
What a great vehicle to fix up! Take to the shows. A place to sleep with Nicky! Save money on hotels! Get it running, quick paint job and shag carpeting! Build it for you to enjoy, travel and camping.
Vans are a hot item so yes fix.
I love the old vans
Part it out i say. Those wheels cleaned up would look good on the 81 Truck you just painted if you want a more stock look. Swapping out the old tires of course.
Hey Lee, fix that sucker. You could go two ways and make money. Either make it to camp out of or make it a toy hauler. Vans are starting to blow up
These are going up in value
I would love to see you bring that van back to life it would be something different for your channel
I need vehicles that will turn a good profit though
I would fix it up and travel hippie style 😜
Vans. Good. It. Worth. It
“Running when deer was whacked” 😊
Lots of good parts on that. The bumpers look good on square body trucks.
I worked at a Chevy dealership in the 80s and explorer was a top of the line conversion. We sold them for close to 40k. Great find.
crazy
I love vans. Been restoring a 73 Dodge shorty and gave it a custom paint job. Vans are becoming more popular because they are affordable rear wheel drive V8s. But they aren’t your cup of tea, so I would probably part that one out and keep the 350 around for a future project. The interior needs a lot of work. Sounds like the 350 will run just fine. The middle buckets look nice and they are worth $100 each where I live. They would go great in my van but it’s too far to drive to get them. I would advertise it and part it out if you can’t sell it for more than $650. There is some money to be made there.
Yes fix it up I like it
I like that the codes is easy to tell what size engine in TBI . Driver side says 5.0L or 5.7L
Not bad probably runs and drives give it a nice paint job
The most common issue was an easy fix. The connection between the fuse box and engine harness would corrode. The engine will crank but won't run. Check that first.
Aww yessssss l love vans.
Yessssss
I would get it going, gut it out, paint it up cool & use it for a work van doing contractor work for folks. It's a keeper
Love those conversion vans ,but it's a parts van. Thanks Lee!!
Good morning from Cape Cod 🦈 those vans are worth good money here in New England, there are none because they rust to hell. I personally hate hate hate hate vans with a passion, pain in the freaking ass to work on. In that condition is worth two to three thousand without even touching it here. You know what you're doing, you'll make money one way or the other. Keep up the good work Lee 👍✌️🇺🇲
Thanks
Let it live
New to your channel… grew up in Norman.. have my 81 SWB 250 3 speed Silverado unicorn I bought new at 16…. Love to see all the 81 content plus the rest!
welcome!
Definitely fix the old girl up !!
I like those day vans and that looks rust free so if it runs and drives and the transmission is good it's worth doing up I think.
Probably best to part it out
I thought I was the only guy cheap enough to replace just one wiper blade?
haha..cheaper at Walmart so I'll wait for the other one
I Like the wheels...They'd look good on a chevy pick up...
Young girls like these kind of vans to live in 🇺🇲
Nice score for $650. The bumpers and wheels will sell easily.
I like that van 🇺🇲
Nice! I had one the same color
at least big vans are better than minivans aka soccer mom wagon because the full size oldies vans were like a bedroom on wheels that people put in waterbeds in the back a table in the center with a mini fridge and a closet and a sink on the side and those vans had a graphic mural on the side panel with bubble windows and shaggy carpet on the floor and they went to the show call VanStock a car show like woodstock for big custom vans.
Keep the van
Cool!
G20 and 25 Chevrolet Vans are a 3/4 ton with 5 lug wheels.
Hell yeah, shaggin wagon van vids?
at least one more
The van looks pretty much rust free to bad it's not worth it for you.I'm driving an 84 right now what a pig but I get all kinds of thumbs up and people wanting to talk about it.Remember back in the day if you had that with a sick mural you where it.
The other day I was seeing how a bunch of CZcamsrs are going to a car show in Texas and I realized that I don't know what your name is. You might do a little better on here if you promoted yourself more. I like that you aren't constantly selling merchandise and begging people to like and subscribe, but these other guys do it because it works. I know it costs money to go to those car shows but there's a lot of cross promotion going on. I discovered a few new people to watch that way.
I went to Hot Rod Power Tour the last 2 years, didn't help much subscriber wise.
Hope you get your $650 back on parts soon , buy another c/c , enjoyed the vid 👍
Man you need a forklift
too expensive
Van life builds are getting big views, rents to high these days!
Id put that shift lever on the C10
Unfortunately guys, it's not worth the time and effort or money for Lee to spend on this van. He's not gonna make the money on CZcams to cover his expenses. Sadly the channels that are bullshitters and never finish anything are the the ones that make big money. For whatever reason the majority must like rust and junk, enjoy bullshit. I enjoy this this channel because Lee seems to be a straight shooter which is rare today and he's showing people you can have nice painted vehicles for a reasonable amount of money and work! Just my opinion though!!
Thanks. True.
I have sold 3 vans one for 20 thousand and one for 12 thousand one for 6 thousand they are good money makers
Safari vans are good they don't make them anymore .I watch pull Barn garage.
If it runs and drives theirs a market for these kids who like to convert them to live and travel in . Get 15/16 hundred running and driving and let them worry about the title .
Fix it up
👍👍👍
20 series is a heavy duty chassis. A G10 is light duty
true g10 is a modern day 1500/half ton..g 20 is a modern day 25003/4 ton and g30 is a modern day 3500 one tone..
That what that guy was doing camping from it fish for dinner work on it sell it to a camper person and do a retro paint job 3 color paint better yet call some race car guy will buy to transport every one to track for weekend there some idea do custom paint to match trailer
The possibilities are endless
That van will get about 10 just driving
Sir, if that van still had the diesel ( as awful as they are) and a 5 spd stick, I’d be all up in your email inbox… I am curious to see you work your magic on this…
Part it out
I say fix it up n sell it 🇺🇲
You need to edit your videos, make them shorter, and add alil umph to it
Looks like you junked a bunch of cars. I would be shocked if the transmission is good in the Nissan. You are correct about the van, no one wants to pay shit, it's a shame that's a good one, not worth the effort!
I scrapped 48 cars a little over a year ago
32:27 "...take the cats off of it..." "...not exactly sure what the cats are worth...."
catalytic converters
@@clunkersandclassics Of course, it was a joke.
unless it a rebuild not able not rust or gum up i do a removeable till get one or have one thats cheap plus un body undercoat cheap i used roof tar coatings plus get hold for beer money they write bill sale exauter of the estate sign and notirized usally law office so its cheap just postage unless you work with tow company they can do it fr you
I don't know I haul a lot of junk myself I'd part it out The engines definitely worth something but it might be good to get it running long enough to chest out that transmission
true
If the interior cleans up it could be worth a few grand. Or two grand as a work van. Some young guy starting a business might need something like that. I'm here for the classics more than the clunkers, but if you can get it running and yard driving in one day for no money... Otherwise you'd make more money at a fast food place. No point spending a month fixing it and painting it to make 800 dollars.
true, I might get a fuel pump for it at least
Oh my!!! All that wood on the dash, doors and stuff looks horrible and REALLY thick!! What were they thinking?
it was the in thing in the 80s
Before you do anything see if it runs and drives.transmission shifts...and then lysol and bodywork.lol..peace...
its got potential ya got drop the tank etc but truth i would do cheap inline pumps autozone limeted life warrenty efi,tbi 55-60 psi down
I don’t think this one is worth fixing, unfortunately.
Surburbans aren't worth very much??? What years are you talking about brotha??
all years. pickups worth more
Oh okay well a pickup is definitely a money maker OBS Suburbans in fair to good condition or highly sought-after by select group of Gearheads😁 it's a easy quick flip.
Part it out, I bet you could make good money.
tail gater rig money is shore power rig gen bbq shade canopy okc football and track races political rallys
Those transmissions are junk. Check on google they've had many of lawsuits against nissan for their c v t transmissions. I guarantee that's why they parked it because of the transmission.You're better off to sell the parts as you probably already know
it got parked because it hit a deer and is wrecked.
Part it out. Nobody wants those things anymore. Not worth anything.
most people in the comments don't agree
Avon crystal is low $20 to $100 found the box and bowl like that online 🫰$20 I use it as a ash tray
cool. I may have to look up some of that stuff.
Part it out
