This is my 2nd van. My first van was a 88' Ford Econoline. It had more expandable fome in it than metal.I got this 78' Gaucho from the original owner back in 04'. Looking to give it the royal treatment soon. I'm finding out that restoring a van seems as hard as restoring a fancy foriegn car. OEM parts are hard to find and aftermarket parts never fit quite right. Why isn't there a Year One company for van parts? Vannin is the Best!!! Vans for life!!!! \ [img:center] https://mail.google.com/mail/?ui=2&i...p=inline&zw[/img]

My first Van was a 1988 Volkswagen Vanagon Multivan, similar to the weekender-model in the US. I got it brand-new in november 1987:  Through this Vanagon, I came in contact with the german van-scene and that led to my first fullsize-Van, a 1982 G20 with 305 V8 and 350 transmission. Original, it was beige, but got an new paint for the selling-auction, and it arrived in may 1991 from Miami:  Sorry for the poor quality of this photo, it was done in the pre-digital era. The photo was shot that day, when the G20 was replaced with a 1986 GMC Vandura 2500 wiht a 350 V8 and a TH400 transmission:  This Van was sold in summer 1999, and for the next year I only had the red Vanagon, until I bought in august 2003 the Highway-Bully. Since december 2009 I only have the Highway-Bully and a VW Caddy Maxi as daily-driver. And the Eriba Touring is on all pictures the same trailer, first in original red-colour and in my signature as it looks today.
