Sony CD with 4 speakers and wired for amp with heavy duty amp wiring kit.

The rear seat also has a pullout built in bed and I have a custom screen kit for the pop out rear windows and the front windows for camping. Undercarriage is rust free. Color is Cordova brown. Paint looks good but is not perfect. It sat covered for 12 years and I had it professionally buffed and waxed and it looks great but not perfect. If your buying it as a collector you'll want to paint it over the next couple years, but it's fine as is until you're ready.

I have all original documentation including factory build sheets and sales contracts and a large envelope of all receipts from previous owners as well as owners and repair manuals.

The bad. It needs a AC needs compressor replaced and one hose repaired. Compressor and line are not currently attached to motor but have everything including all brackets. 1 Quarter size bubble on each front door, silver dollar size front of pass. wheel well, 4 or 5 small spots behind pass. wheel. I'd says it's 96% rust free.Will need shocks. 2 wheel center caps missing $9.95 online. Firestone stripped one of my lug studs on the passenger front while balancing my tires, I have no idea how. Heater core started leaking about 2 weeks ago and I looped it off but haven't driven since it happened. Comes with new heater core which needs installed.

I am the third owner and it's always been adult owned. The original owner was an older man who bought the van to sit in while his Vette was on display at car shows.I'm 57 and built this van to keep for myself.I lovethis van.It has great bones. These classic vans are gaining in value like classic muscle cars have in the past and a 77 G20 Shorty with factory 400 and such low mileage it's going to be extremely collectible in the future. I believe with it's factory specs, it's drive train and it's condition as well as the fact a custom van is a one off vehicle unlike traditional muscle cars will make this beauty one of the nicest keeper vans forboth enjoyment and investment available.

Only reason for selling is to take care of Father in laws failing health.

This van is extremely fast and I highly recommend it not be bought for a minor unless your kid is ready for Street Outlaws. When you press the go pedal button you'd better have it pointed in the right direction because it gets there in a hurry.

I have described it as well as I can and I greatly value my feedback rating so if you have any questions feel free to contact me for more info. I'll answer any questions I can. I prefer Text 843-437-8009. I have this up for sale locally and must reserve the right to cancel the ad at any time due to that fact.

I'm glad to work with your shipping company and can have it at abusiness address for pick up ifit helps.If you don't have a shipper I recommend USHIP. I've had great luck with them. Van is in a safe location and is ok for as long as needed for shipping arrangements.

Thank you for looking and good luck bidding. I look forward to doing business with the winner and passing this beauty on to someone who appreciates it and will give it the care it deserves.
