    1988 Champion Transvan

It was mostly as expected, meaning not quite as nice as the pictures but pretty close.The "tile" back splash is just cheap glue on vinyl and is coming off in places, likely due to Texas summer temperatures.

    Advice needed on Craigslist find

    My ultimate goal is to drive it from Austin to Alaska and then back down to Baja for the winter, stopping along the way to do seasonal biology work. I plan on staying in Alaska for three months or so and Baja for a few months. I will likely spend this winter in Austin at my current job to save...

    I found this van near me and it looks to be in decent shape, from the pictures. i plan to take a look at it tomorrow and would like everyone's take on it.
