Hi and welcome. Van's seem to pop up often. I'm sure one will come along with your name on it.

Welcome JD. While you are looking for your 360, be sure to join one of the honda 600 groups on yahoo. See this page of mine.
Best of luck,
Steve

there's a van in the for sale section that looks very clean for $2500. You can get it trucked out here for another $500, more or less. That's not too bad.

2stroketurbo yeah those are 13" hayashi racing rims they will be going on my project car when its done it will have fender flares so it will look a little better finding wheels for these cars are a pain (well at least ones I like) I have two sets of 10" stocks

Microimage I will check out the one for sale I would love to buy one but sight unseen and having it shipped freaks me out a little I would take that chance on a much cheaper one.
I will keep looking. Thanks

JD

^ The seller just fired it up and it runs fine. Looks clean. I bought all my 360's without seeing them first. 8)

If the seller has all the missing parts (he says he does) it's a great deal. I see no rust.

Well I'm finally a car carrying member!
I picked up a 1969 van it's very complete and very rusty I know it will never be Barrett Jackson restore but I hope overtime to repair the rust and get it on the road.

Thanks I was on the board reading up a lot before but with my van I can't stop looking things up!!

Hey that's so cool you got a van, in the meantime I got 13" wheels for my z 600 coupe. Not uber cool Hayashi racing rims, but some slap on bling that works
