One Bad Astro...
Hello all, this is the first Astro I bought 7 years ago. It was a '98 AWD and was a retired State of Michigan vehicle with 111,000 miles on it. It was used as a mobile office.
When I brought it home, my wife asked me why I bought such an ugly vehicle... I asked her to give me a few months... The truck was to be used as our family vehicle as well as for my business. This was all done with vinyl graphics... Then I installed a 2" Overland lift kit and got some nicer rims and tires... Two years pass, and the clear is starting to come off the high top, so I decided to make a few changes... Base coat of black... I did all of the door jams and the underside of the hood. I left the firewall teal.

All done and ready for work...
We ran this van for 5 years total and enjoyed it very much. The Michigan winters took their toll on the body though. It started to rust along the bottom, and doing what I do for a living, if it doesn't look good, it needs to be replaced... So in July of 2012 I started searching for her replacement.
In October of 2012, I bought "Bad Astro II."
