The Background
The Chevrolet Van or Chevy Van was manufactured from 1964 to 1996 replacing the rear engine Corvair Corvan. The platform was the basis for a variety of configurations, from passenger vehicles to full blown campers like the one presented for auction here.
The Chevy Van spanned three generations and was sold under both the Chevrolet and GMC brand name. It was initially sold as a forward control vehicle, much like a lorry, with the engine between the two front passengers, by the third generation, it was a much more conventional front engine layout.
The G20 used a unibody chassis and derived mechanical components from the first two generations. In production for 25 years, it became one of the longest-produced vehicle platforms designed by GM.
The History
The current owner purchased the Day van from its previous owner who sadly passed away after owning the van from 2015. Since then, the current owner has fixed any issues on the van and used it for what its best at, going on adventures.
The Day Van comes with everything you might need for a life on the road and is basically a mobile apartment with the amount of living space you get in the back.

The Day van comes with lots of paperwork to back up its care during the current and previous owners time with the van since 2013. The van also has its V5 with old V5’s also present.

Driving the day van around must feel like driving a living room around with the layout and amount of space it affords the owner. It has the benefit of a lifted roof as well, meaning headroom is not a problem and with ‘captain’ style chairs, it means that no-one needs to be left out in the cold.
The Exterior
The Turtle Top Day Van has quite a presence on or off the road, resembling a small RV rather than a van. Starting at the front though, the four headlights and grille were an optional extra available with the higher spec vans. The raised roof is reminiscent of the VW camper vans with the Westfalia conversion, and the roof rack on top of that means that load space is not an issue with the Chevy Van.
Moving round the van, you can really appreciate the custom paintwork and there are some aftermarket side skirts giving the already wide van a meaner and lower look, with tinted windows helping to keep privacy at a maximum. The van has deep dish chrome wheels with Nankang tyres with 7mm front tread and 8mm rear tread, also coming with Chevrolet wheel nut caps all round and a rear mounted spare with a ladder to the roof on the back.
At the right-hand side of the van is where you’ll find the awning and bay doors to the inside, the awning giving good coverage from any inevitable downpour you’re likely to experience in the UK. Potential buyers will be pleased to hear that the awning is simple to put up and take down should you need to make a speedy get away from the campsite.
Finishing off at the front again and the windscreen has a canopy to help with sunlight and rain whilst the front also has a bevy of spotlight to help illuminate the road ahead.
The Mechanics
As said earlier, the van will have a new MOT until September 2022, having failed on rear brakes needing to be bled, the van has had a sympathetic recommission by the current owner and has been working well since. Some of the work included; new correct oil filter fitted, air conditioning charged,
The mechanicals of this behemoth have been gone over with a fine-tooth comb with a full service being carried out in September at 73,480 miles and an auto transmission service and new power steering pump and hose being installed in December of last year at 73,565 miles. Since then, it has been driven to the coast and back with no issues at all for a weekend of camping.

All electricals and mechanicals work as they should and promise to provide the new owner with plenty of trouble-free miles. The engine roared into life with no hesitation, idled smoothly and the gearbox engaged gears without any noises or crunches.
The Appeal
If you’ve got a taste for adventure and dream of the nomadic lifestyle but also appreciate some of life comforts, then the Chevy Van is a tempting compromise. With enough space and luxuries afforded for you to put your feet up with a cuppa and relax in style whilst still being capable of hauling itself around thanks to 5.7L of good ol’ American iron the Chevy van is not just a van but a romantic notion of exploring.
Add to the fact that this van could be the basis for some cherished family memories or some much needed escapism from the real world at the moment, that the A-team had one and children of the 80’s and 90’s will be in full nostalgia mode looking at this van.

Come funzionano le offerte massime
Il processo di offerta massima ti permette di fare offerte senza preoccupazioni.
Inserisci la tua offerta massima e il sistema farà offerte automaticamente per assicurarsi che tu sia il miglior offerente - fino all'ammontare da te stabilito come tetto massimo.
Anti-sniping
Car & Classic contrasta il fenomeno dello “sniping”, ovvero il fenomeno dei rilanci all'ultimo secondo per vincere l'asta.
Se viene fatta un'offerta nei 3 minuti prima della chiusura dell'asta, la scadenza di questa viene automaticamente estesa di 2 minuti per permettere agli altri offerenti di reagire e, se lo desiderano, di rilanciare.
Incrementi di offerta automatica
- Se la sua offerta massima è uguale o inferiore al prezzo di riserva, la sua offerta massima sarà applicata per intero se lei è il miglior offerente.
- Se siete il miglior offerente e fate un'offerta massima superiore a quella di riserva, la riserva verrà automaticamente inserita come prima offerta.
-
- Una volta raggiunta la riserva, Car & Classic si assicurerà che tu sia il miglior offerente utilizzando solo gli incrementi di offerta indicati di seguito.
- Vi terremo in testa fino alla vostra offerta massima O all'incremento più vicino alla vostra offerta massima, a condizione che la vostra offerta massima sia sufficiente a coprire il valore dell'incremento.
| Ammontare dell'offerta | Incremento |
|---|---|
| Da £0 a £9,999 | £100.00 |
| Da £10,000 a £49,999 | £250.00 |
| Da £50,000 a £99,999 | £500.00 |
| £100,000 + | £1,000.00 |
Superamento immediato dell'offerta
Quando piazzi un'offerta massima e questa viene immediatamente superata, questo significa che un altro offerente ha impostato una soglia di offerta massima superiore alla tua.
Puoi fare nuovamente un'offerta o impostare una soglia più alta di offerta massima e il nostro sistema rilancerà fino alla nuova soglia, cercando di portarti a essere il miglior offerente.
Offerte massime di pari ammontare
Quando ci sono due offerte massime di pari ammontare, quella impostata per prima è quella che viene considerata “migliore offerta”.
Pre-autorizzazione
Potremmo trattenere un piccolo importo di pre-autorizzazione sulla tua carta fino alla fine dell'asta, quando quest'ultimo verrà poi stornato. Se vinci, verrà prelevata una caparra che verrà detratta dal pagamento del prezzo di vendita per il veicolo e non comporta costi aggiuntivi per te.
Cosa sono le Offerte pre-asta?
Offerte pre-asta significa che avete la possibilità di fare offerte prima dell'inizio ufficiale dell'asta.
Verrà comunicato se si è il miglior offerente o meno all'inizio dell'asta.
Problema con l'offerta
