( serious rust issues) On a brighter note I just found a 1987 dodge panel van that I'm picking up Saturday. Looking forward to getting back into the lifestyle. I owned a 72 Ford panel from my mid teens to my late 20's and those were some of the greatest times in my life. I'm in the south Alabama northwest Florida area and would like to see if there are other members near my area. Thanks for having such a great site here , it's kept my hopes up for getting another van.

I bought it from a rod shop that was using as a parts runner so hopefully I can service it and run over everything in a couple weekends.

And Congratulations on the new van. | | | Re: New old member | Joined: May 2013 Posts: 52 journeyman | OP journeyman Joined: May 2013 Posts: 52 | Got her home, a couple adjustment on the shift linkage and she's running and driving pretty good. There is a vibration in the drive shaft and upon inspection it appears to have new u-joints and the shaft isn't bent but it has a lot of weights on it. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
