I first saw this '95 GMC Van at the
Council of Councils in New Orleans in February 2014. I was
talking to DanO in the parking lot of the host hotel when I saw it
there. DanO said that Bones from SEVC owned the Van. It
was almost love at first sight. I didn't give the Van much
thought after that until I saw it again at Beverly Beach in May of
2014. Bones hinted he might be interested in selling the Van.
After months went
by, he called and said he was ready to sell. He brought the Van
to Zephyrhills and the deal was made. The following weekend, we
took the Van on its first road trip, to the Carolinas. It ran
great and the leather seats added more comfort to the trip.
Although the bench seat folded to a bed, it didn't have the
comfortable feel that we were used to sleeping on. I switched
the bed from Iron Van II to this Van, which gave us more cushion and
storage space underneath.
Also, the rally
wheels and 60s tires were switched to this Van. The only other
addition will be the sun visor that I kept from the '87 Van.
Having owned it for only ten months, it has been a pleasure.
Thanks Bones!
