That is assuming Jelop.net is immortal. It’s only as immortal as the herbs will let it be.

Nice.

Nice!  I have half a mind to wander over to Victory and check it out myself, just to see how bad it is.

Somebody paid $2000 for that!?

It’s probably all of the above, but they could at least mention Oppo...

I’d like to buy one of the USPS vans and wedge in an LS engine and call it Priority Male.

When those things start to go surplus I have a bad want for one.

Yes, but I read that they’re being refurbished to a new standard and will see another generation of service.

See my link below.  Someone did it.

I wouldn’t LS swap mine - probably just rock the iron duke for a bit and make it into a camping/small beater.

I’m kind of glad they don’t. Keeps the ***hats out...

I’m sure there’s some farming going on for sure. In this instance, I sent David the photos directly, then posted them to Oppo.

All my years of junkyarding have finally yielded me the fame and attention I’ve been seeking.

It was really cool to see it up close. I actually was trobleshooting my ignition at the same time he posted about how he did the ignition on the postal Jeep. It was cool to see his setup up close and other things like the frame repair he did.

It’s a POS for sure, but if you look really close all the critical systems have new parts and you can see the work he’s done.

That would be more useful than an LS swap.

I probably wouldn’t either, but it’s fun to think about. They don’t come up very often for auction and when they do, they don’t go cheap.

If useful  is part of the brief...

I’d thought of that. Some of the FP stuff that pops up on the right does not meet our Keep-It-Excellent, NSFW standards.

It’s only about 20 minutes from me, maybe I'll stop by on Thursday since I'm taking it off.

I’ve thought the same and given how short the nose is I’ve wondered if an LS and transaxle from an Impala SS replacing the rear axle would be the easiest solution. Then you’d have a mid engine LS mail truck.

I wanted to call mine Going Postal.

Damn, I would’ve thought 26 years would’ve been long life enough for an llv to live up to it’s name. I wonder if it’s being done for urban areas where the new bigger truck may not work as well.

Good grief...I haven't been on Jalopnik for months. That was almost unreadable on my phone...

Yeah - they’re probably a few years away from being replaced.  They still do nearly all the mail delivery here.
