Scrapped & Saved 1990 Chevy G20 Hightop Van

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

Technically speaking the van did get a fair chance at being rehomed. Turns out the new owner only wanting its organs! 😬 But if you pay full price in cash you can do whatever you want with it ! And as part of the deal we are removing the drivetrain for him. So here we go ! Check it out one last time before disassembly! Thanks for watching !

    Can anyone tell me why my videos are stuck at 360p for quality ? The last two videos turned out that way. I film them in 1080hd or 4K and upload them over very good WiFi . I checked over my phone and KZread settings but still have no luck ?

    When you upload it youtube checks and reviews the video for any copyright or anything so until it’s finished being looked at they will then allow it to have the 1080p. Usually takes a couple of hours or a day.

    I Still Have My 1990 Chevrolet G20 , 5.3L V-8 --- Mark lll Conversion Van . 12-11-2021. Los Angeles Calif. Everything except the Air Cond. Works. Has Been a Daily Driver to Work, but I wanted to Slow That Down...and Preserve it More.... Gangstas tried to Steal it a Year and a Half Ago.... But I had My Kill Switch Activated...!! They Walked Off Empty Handed , Even after Punching the Steering Column / Ignition area...Damaging it...So I bought a " Rebuilt Steering Column " to switch it Out. Left a Bad Taste in my mouth....

    Rusted and unibody are not a good combo. The G20 already has a weak "frame" without rust, they were just a 1/2 ton with a 3/4 ton badge slapped on. Why anybody would pay $1200+ labor for a TBI 350 and 2wd 700r4 is beyond me.

    Given the pretty severe rust this one appears to have then parting it out is probably the best option. If someone bought that to do up it would probably turn into one of those "I'll get round to it one day" deals that never gets done and then ends up getting dragged back into the yard and weighed in when everything is far too far gone to do anything with. At least this way your customer gets a decent drive train and other customers can pick over the carcass for what they need to keep other going. And you might be able to get your missing table top and replacement steering wheel too so it's a win all round...
