I have all the receipts for the parts / work I have done.
Problems: a small ding in passenger side door, needs a radiator overflow bottle, new front carpet fitted (supplied), and I would replace the front apron which I also have.
Overall an extremely tidy HK van which turns heads where ever it goes and you definitely don't see many windowless vans of this era. Not only does it look the part it boasts the performance, reliability and fuel economy of the V6. Having rebuilt all the suspension, steering and braking most will be shocked at how well it handles for a 1968 vehicle.
$8200 ono. Must Sell!
