An Astro “Show Car”?

Yes, that’s what this claims to be.

This is an Astro van with a nasty body kit, poor color choices, airbags and no mention of any engine work.  What more can I say?

The seller states that this is a “fully unique body kit” and “you will NEVER find another like this.”  We’re okay with that and the world would be a slightly better place is this one never existed.

The creator of this custom couldn’t decide what to do with the boxy rear, so it just has an ugly plastic bumper and a crooked license plate mount.

“Performance” gauges and pedals combine with hideous green and obligatory billet wheel to check all of the worst of the custom boxes on the interior.

Is that grass or carpet?

Fancy green paint is present in the engine compartment, but it’s not clear there have been any real upgrades here.

MANY MANY EXTRAS
This is just a partial list. Remember, the van is almost 15 years old and has it’s minor issues. 
It runs and drives well but it needs shocks and the radiator runs hot.
