This 1979 Chevrolet G20 van is a two-owner example that received a Winnebago conversion in August of its model year. Badges from Lichtsinn Chevrolet-Oldsmobile in Forest City, Iowa, corroborate the selling dealer’s report that this van spent the majority of its life in Iowa before being recently relocated to Wisconsin. Powered by a 350ci Chevrolet small-block V8 paired with a column-shifted Turbo-Hydramatic 3-speed, the van's amenities include first and second-row captain’s chairs, a fold-flat rear bench, cruise control, a CB radio, and shag carpeting. Finished in brown with earth-tone graphics over a Light Camel cloth interior, this third-generation G20 conversion van is now offered by the selling dealer in Stanley, Wisconsin.
The third-generation G20 wears a grille in the style of Chevrolet’s C/K pickups, along with chrome bumpers, door handles, and sideview mirrors. This example is painted brown with earth-tone graphics and displays a Chevy Van badge on each front fender. A passenger-side sliding door allows ingress and egress to and from the rear passenger area. The spare tire is wrapped in a Winnebago-branded cover and mounted on a swing-away carrier on the right rear barn door. Some corrosion around the wheel arches and faded paint is visible in carousel photos.
Turbine-style multi-spoke 15” wheels are wrapped in 235-section Ironman whitewall tires. The van is fitted with an independent front suspension with coil springs and control arms and a solid axle with leaf springs at the rear, as well as power steering and power-assisted brakes with front discs.
The interior is fitted with two rows of Light Camel cloth captain’s chairs with armrests and a fold-flat bench seat in the rear. A 1970s aesthetic is present throughout, with autumn colors and shag carpeting on the interior panels and floor, and a brown vinyl headliner. Speakers are set in the doors and rear panels and wired to the factory Balance AM/FM cassette deck. Additional amenities include air conditioning, auxiliary cabin lighting, cruise control, a cigarette lighter, sun visors, power windows, a center console with storage and cup holders, a removable table, and a CB radio with handset.
Instrumentation resides behind a ComfortTilt steering wheel and consists of an 80-mph speedometer and gauges for fuel level, coolant temperature, oil pressure, and voltage. The five-digit odometer shows approximately 75k miles, which the selling dealer asserts as being original.
The Chevrolet small-block 350ci V8 is stated to run well and sends power to the rear wheels via a 3-speed Turbo-Hydramatic with a column-mounted shift lever.
Additional photos showing the underside are available in the carousel.
