    You're 6 months too late for one really nice one that jonnyb was selling. But it might hit the market at some point in the future again, you never can tell.

    I saw the red one and the black sunroof van. I was close to making the call on both but had too much going on.

    Now I have some free time and I need a van to haul our two Newfoundlands. I'm using that excuse as my reasoning for needing a van.

    Off subject, but I did not know that Newfoundlands came in any other color but black .

    I learned something new today.

    The white /brown one is cool looking....

    I have an Ice Blue Mini Van that I might sell

    They look like newfoundland seals! A bit shaggy, but seal ish.
    John Laing

    "The sole condition which is required in order to succeed in centralizing the supreme power in a democratic community, is to love equality, or to get men to believe you love it. Thus the science of despotism, which was once so complex is simplified, and reduced . . . . to a single principle."
    -- Alexis de Tocqueville

    "One of the methods used by statists to destroy capitalism consists in establishing controls that tie a given industry hand and foot, making it unable to solve its problems, then declaring that freedom has failed and stronger controls are necessary."
    --Ayn Rand

    "To evolve, you don't need a Constitution. All you need is a legislature and a ballot box . . . . things will evolve as much as you want. All of these changes can come about democratically; you don't need a Constitution to do that and it's not the function of a Constitution to do that."
    -- Justice Antonin Scalia

    They love the pool. We had it open until near the end of November.
    And they prefer the heater to be off.

    There is one for sale over on TD.com right now I was going to point you to, but it appears there is something shady going on with it. A couple of members have looked at it and not been impressed. Buyer beware...

    That one had been posted here before.
    That is some crappy luck about the headgasket and the potential buyer.

    Re: Turbo Minivan Wanted

    Found one. 1989 Voyager LX.

    What is a good cal for a basically stock mini with an auto trans? Is there something similar to the 1991 High Torque cal that will work in a SMEC?

    I'll post more photos once I have it home.
    The fleet is going from a bunch of small black cars to larger white cars & trucks.
    Depending on where SDAC is this year, I may be there in the van. It all hinges on my new work assignment.
