Depending on how much it would be to ship you could still get it! I could crate it all up and ship it freight?

Depends whos coming with. I will probably be in my spirit dollying the omni. But maybe if we get enough people going with in other vehicles maybe we could fit it all? Doubtful tho.
Gotcha.

If you want defrost, I'd just buy one of those aftermarket kits for it. Otherwise, you'd be into finding a tailgate that is in same or better condition that yours with working wiper etc preferably in the same color... and just "not very rusty" ones tend to run to $200.... at least in rustbelt areas.... the "just the glass" approach is also a crapshoot and you'll probably want a glass installer to do it unless you're okay with chasing leaks for 6 months and potentially rusting your thus far unrusty tailgate... this will also tend to run spendy...
If you had a rotted gate with a siezed wiper, I'd say, sure, look for one with defrost... but if yours is in premium shape already, unless you get real lucky it's just far easier and cheaper to get a stick on defroster.

I had one of them, too!
Pete Faggella 03 PT Cruiser, 2.4L N/A 5 speed. Daily driver. All stock with baby moon wheels. 85 LeBaron 2.2TBI auto. Hoped I'd see a difference with bumped compression, but I didn't. Still slow. "Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside in a cloud of smoke, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming "Wow! What a Ride!'"
Wish i knew as much then as i do now.. I would have been able to help a lot more. But i do still remember all the many times we talked about that van, and even remember some burnout vids and off-roading too. hehehehe
Dont push the red button.You hear me?
Ill looking the after market rear defrost. Ill also cover my seat heater install in the upcoming weeks!
This weekend i sealed the engine up nice and dry! Put new cam, crank, aux shaft and retainer seal, valve cover, and oil pan gaskets on. Also changed all teh filters, fluids, plugs, wires, ect. Runs GREAT now. Filled the tank up to the top. Ill also report what kind of MPGs i get with this beauty.
Put 4 bucket seats in the van today as well as a clean carpet set from the junkyard. Went from manual to power drivers seat. Also grabbed a few missing interior pieces. Lucked onto another SWB van the same color so i grabbed the side molding pieces from that. Shes cleaning up real nice!
Still havent put gas in so MPG is still up in the air
pics coming soon.
Also picked up a CD/ tape player combo! forgot to mention and very excited about it.
Sunday i lowerd the front using Struts/springs from a 90 shadow es, lowered the back by taking out one leaf. Has a nice rake to it now! Put in my CD/Tape head unit in. I also wired up the drivers power seat!. A new steering rack is on the way to fix my last and final leak. Then off to alighnment by the end of the week hopefully!
Where's the documentation?You have to grind material out of the block to make the PTU fit. Apparently you end up hitting an oil drain
I confirmed a 3.0L block works with AWD, and lotsaboost confirmed the 2.4L block works. Sadly no one has found a way to get 2.2L/2.5L to work.
Im going 2.4. I have slowly been collecting parts, I have sourced a 99 stratus 2.4 block with SRT rods/pistons. I have pt cruiser head. Just picked up all 16 valves from mopar for a 2005 srt along with the head gasket. I have a 568 sitting under the bench.
Ive been getting 17-18mpg in town and the last trip down to the track towing the omni i got 21!
Still with 3.0 right?
If you're going 2.4 id skip the 2.5 part entirely.. I think that's what you're doing but not 100% sure just by reading this.

Stick shift van is so awesome. I enjoy owning a 1992 Voyager factory 5 speed but I really want to find a 94 eventually. Did you know you can easily swap in the digital dash from a town and country or easily swap in the full feature analog cluster? I swapped in the Town and Country dash (and bcm to drive it) into my 92 Voyager and it gained headlamp off delay as well which is a pretty nice feature.
no my van is a 2.5l factory 5 speed. I AM GOING 2.4 with it. ive collected pretty much everything i will need for a major start.
Wait a second, you tow a car with a TBI minivan?!
Springs about the same, brakes about the same, torque.... not so much... probably wanna use truck routing on yer GPS so you get the 5000ft on ramps.
