For sale is a 1984 A M General Postal Van/Truck, converted into a Wheelchair Van. It has 1,51085 Original Miles. I put a Brand-New Jasper Crate motor with a over Sized Aluminum Radiator in it and I had the Rear End ReBuilt less than 20,000 miles ago. This is a rear entry Van, but has more than enough room for a passengers and room for grocery's etc. I have also made the rear door to act as the door and a ramp to get in and out of the A M General Postal Van/Truck. I have had an Electric Wench installed to aid in the opening and closing of the rear door, even though it can be done manualy without too much trouble, even by a 70-year-old woman. (My mom) It does not have A/C, but does have a good heater. It is not too hot inside, if you have a side doors open and are moving. That is the way I have traveled in it for years. I have done/had done a lot of small things and not so small things to make the Postal Van more appealing, comfortable, to reduce noise levels and pretty much everything you can think of to reduce the heat from coming in to the cab. I still have a couple of small holes where wives are going through the firewall under the steering wheel, but nothing that a little spray foam insulation to seal the 2 or 3 holes, which are smaller than the size of a quarter, but yet enough to let some engine heat in. This is still a good running Van and I wouldn't be afraid to drive it 300-400 miles or maybe even further, if it was not too hot and the road conditions were not covered with ice or snow, since the AM General is pretty light and I have even had to have a lady push me out of her wet grass before. Van modification to make it wheelchair accessible cost in excess of: $4000, Over $7000 for the new Jasper Engine and Extra Large Aluminum Radiator, plus $1800 for the new rear end. All of which have around 20,000 miles or less. I had the Dashboard custom made by a local carpenter and instead of having the old/original ceiling insulation, which was not very good and was likely to fall down from time to time. I had a friend install a Tongue and Groove Wood Ceiling to replace the original ceiling insulation, which was not worth much as far as keeping the interior any cooler or the noise level down. In between the wood ceiling and the metal roof is spray foam insulation, which was sprayed on by a Insulation Company. You will be hard pressed to find a A M General Postal Van/Truck in this nice of condition in this nice condition anywhere. Vin: 1UTCF10F9ES290716
