JJ, i gotta ask how soon you guys planning on moving? oh, and i wanted to mention, i found some of the van issues in my dad's huge mag collection, but god some of those vans are just awful, lol. i think the ones i've found so far are from the tail end of the van craze, i found one from mabe '73 that has the yamahauler van that was kinda cool though.
I would love to see ANY of those mags. It really brings back memories of when i was a kid.

Good Evening Everyone.
I hope everyone is having a good weekend so far!
I spent a good part of this afternoon with my Dad replacing the power steering pump in the Bonneville. Its been making this dreaded whining noise, especially around 2500 and 3000 RPM. It sounds identical to the noise that my Monte was making when the power steering pump crapped out. Well, after replacing the power steering pump, and test driving, the noise is still there! AGH! Now we don't know what the heck is making the noise??????? Maybe the alternator bearing. I was spining the pully on the alternator while the serpentine belt was off, and it was pretty noisey, and had a light sqeak noise to it. So maybe its the alternator. HMMMMMMMMMMM!
At least the new power steering pump was only $65 bucks. And it really was not that hard to replace. If anyone needs a new power steering pump, I highly recommend doing it yourself. Save LOTS of money, and like I said, its really do able.
Other than that, I havent done to much. LOL.
Havre a good night everyone!
