Here we have my rare 1983 Dodge B250 Maxi (factory extended) custom van, it was converted by the "Van House" of Lincoln Nebraska and sold new in Suncity Arizona where it lived until late 2015 when shipped here to the uk. I purcashed her in January of 2017 and got it registered. <br />
<br />
Since buying her I"ve replaced the tyres, shocks, universal joints, alternator, voltage regulator and given her a full engine service. I"ve fitted a uk radio CD player that has Bluetooth connectivity and hands free for phones etc. <br />
<br />
The van is fitted with the 318ci (5.2) v8 and mated to a 3 speed autobox, both the engine and box are fine, I"ve done plenty of miles in her and would drive her anywhere. No overheating, no funny noises and uses no oil or water. <br />
<br />
The body is 99.9% rust free and original, it"s like brand new underneath, as I keep it dry stored when not using and won"t use it it bad weather I didn"t see the point it covering it up underneath. <br />
<br />
Inside is all original, three captains chairs that all swivel and a rock n roll bed, there are built in cupboards and a ice box, mood lights, reading lights it"s a fab place to be. <br />
<br />
There are a couple of issues to sort, which if not sold I"ll do over the winter, the electric windows need looking at, you can get them down and up but they need help and when started hot it puffs a little blue smoke out so I suspect it wants some valve stem seals. The only other thing worth a mention is that both front seat bases need work as they got damaged in transit coming from the states hence I have seat covers on.<br />
<br />
I"m not in a rush to sell and I don"t need the money, this is a rare van in the states, let alone over here in the uk. <br />
<br />
I"ve got lots of photos but for best results if your interested come and see her. <br />
<br />
Cheers <br />
