This page is a bit of a list of whats wrong with the van, items I plan to replace or repair and whatever else ends up on here.

here's a list of stuff that needs to be done.
refresh/reseal engine - waterjacket seals leaking.
replace poptop canvas - rotted
replace skylite - warped/distorted/cracked
replace skylite seal - in tatters
replace skylite lifter/rollers - rollers broken
replace poptop & luggage rack seals - most are mia

replace all 4 tires - missmatched and dryrotten
repair brake system - currenty has no braking.

here's some stuff I would like to do...

locate and install new passenger side curtain rail.
replace front carpet, or at least the sections behind the seats.

It seems like a pretty good list, but nothing is really horrible. The big thing is going to be the condition of the clyinder heads. Everything else is pretty much typical wear and tear items.
