I sure like GMC's front end - might be #1 in my book. I should look for one

Speak of GMC, I've had this in my side yard for years. Belongs to my son, but says I can have it for $1200, he actually got it as a gift. 81K and many great parts. Ran, but I need to dump half a gas tank. I'd make a camper of it. Downside is it's a 79, my experience with 78-79 GM passenger vehicles hasn't been great, but the van seems simple.
