He was trying to sell it on eBay but the highest bid he got was my opening bid at $1500 (reserve not met of course). Battery? Under the passenger seat! Reservoir? Under the speedo cowl! I only know this though because he told me when I bought it :-) Still can't find the engine though... I know the steering wheel is not original. Actually it's too small a diameter which blocks both the speedo and tach. I don't like that so I'm planning to replace it. Besides, I want the bigger wheel, makes me feel like I'm really driving a bus! -Mark On Nov 21, 2008, at 5:52 PM, joel walker wrote: >> anyone would like to take a peek at the van.
