So I think i found a Unicorn

1992 Eurovan EWB GL gas 5 speed manual 10 passenger

With, get this….

Barn doors AND double sliders!

247k km

From what I could find out, in storage since 2013 ….

Runs and mechanically sound, but will be gone over in the next few weeks to change all fluids and gaskets (no expense spared)

And will go in over the winter for full body restoration..

Ever seen an other one???

Nice score. There wouldn't have been any sent to the states, but obviously you got them up in Canada. I've only ever seen a few in the UK back in '96. Looking forward to more posts about this one.

I did not know the T4s ever came with dual sliding doors. Very interesting find! Thanks for posting! Smile

CANADA gets all the nice things. Meanwhile, our people clamor for nylons and washing machines .....

Don't those things also come with the locking passenger side glove box.

Look forward to seeing you post more about this van.

Mechanical repairs are almost done. The great thing is it has virtually no rust on the underside, incredibly clean!

It will having all the body work done over the winter. Will be ready in the spring!

Stay tuned!

Quebec seems to have a lot of oddball (in a good way) vehicles floating about. Every time I'm flipping through classifieds I see interesting listings not found in Ontario.

Good luck with it!
