This 1986 Chevrolet G20 conversion van is powered by a 305 V8 paired with a TH350 automatic transmission and rides on a 3.73 rear gear ratio. It has received extensive recent mechanical and cosmetic attention that makes it a solid and well-sorted full-size van.
The van has been updated with new brakes front and rear, including front rotors, front calipers, and rear drums, along with new rear wheel cylinders and fresh rubber brake lines at both ends. All four tires were replaced, and it also received a front-end alignment. The exhaust system was renewed from the catalytic converter back. Cooling system work includes a new water pump, radiator, radiator hoses and clamps, heater hoses and clamps, and a thermostat. The belts for the power steering, alternator, and water pump were replaced as well. The alternator and starter were both installed new rather than rebuilt. The ignition system was refreshed with new spark plugs, plug wires, and a distributor cap, along with a new PCV valve. Additional under-hood updates include an oil sending unit and a heater blower motor.

The rear camera system works through a monitor that can be switched on or off for reviewing rear traffic. The van also features a trailer hitch and trailer-brake controller. Other practical upgrades include new wiper blades, a Diamond Plate step panel on both front doors and the second-row side door, a windshield-washer pump, and a transmission motor mount.
