Hey Mikey, thats a good looking van.

 

[Willy P]

Damn, good job!

 

[Buzzbac]

looks good and drives sweet as a nut, nice job on the floor.

 

[Bob Foster]

Looks good Mike. I would suggest that while everything is out of the van you go to an RV store or marine store and get two oversized RV lights for in the ceiling in the cargo area to swap out for the one existing one that is likely already back there and also swap out the standard Dodge interior light between the front seats too.

 

[Jay D]

liner and carpet, sweet. :wink:

 

[Desk Jockey]

Looks great!

Nice work!

 

[Able 1]

Looks great! What liner did you go with?

 

[joe harper]

Is that roll-on herculiner? If so, it will last FOREVER with that carpet over it, cause it held up to a 7.3 diesel engine scooting around in the back of my truck and never scratched off :shock:

 

[Johnny]

Clean mosheen.

Carpet wouldn't stay looking good for long in my van. Seems carpet would make it harder to hose out a lined bed.

STOP GLOBAL COOLING!

 

[Mikey P]

I run a tight ship, this will do just fine.

 

[Cameron1]

no water barrier to keep moisture from running into the cab area.
simple fix....................drill in a 2by4........... then coat the 2 by with the same stuff you coated the floor with.

it will save you lots of frustration later

 

[Studebaker]

I would put a partition in.

Hate to see an AirPath hit you up side the head.

Ya even did the bumpers.

For a POS Dodge, it looks pretty good.

I always like the look of the dodge cargo.

Maybe its just the area im in, but when you see a Dodge Cargo Van (excluding sprinter) its a toothless redneck, so when i see one I think of smelly menthol cigs and Jim Beam bottles falling out when the doors open.

 

[Bob Foster]

I have never been a big fan of Dodges. But like Mike I ran across a good deal on one and it made sense to buy it. I was really supprised how well it ran and found it ran better than any of the Chev vans that I've owned.

All that really matter is that it is clean and presentable. Dirty vans or vans with mismatched and faded paint are disgusting. At the end of the day, its a backup that I bet will be used more than he thinks it will once he finds out how well the TNT with a Little Giant will perform.

[Becker]

[AshleyMckendree]

Quick change quarter panels? Nice.

Give me a close up of dem!

 

[bob vawter]

quick change quarters....

 

[AshleyMckendree]

Now THAT'S impressive! Do you buy replacement panels from a Crash parts company, and just rivet/screw on rather than weld?

 

[bob vawter]

ya..welding is so....

permanent!

 

[Bob Foster]

I never heard of those before. Do those panels go over top of the old ones?

 

[bob vawter]

yep...jus prime the crap outta the backside...
do a little trimin'.. and...

BAMM they're on...you can do it in yor driveway wit a drill and a rivet gun!

if you go to a moulding line..you can make it invisible

[Mikey P]

Steve can't see it but there is a sealed 1 by 1 there to keep stray water from getting under the seat


If I put a door/barrier there I would not be able to work on the guts very well.

I'll wear a hockey helmet
