so after 3 1/2 years of searching, I finally found THE ONE. And it was mine for a sweet, sweet moment... then brutally drove away
And so, here I am...searching again for:
-any year b190
-ideally around 50k miles, but probably no more than 75k
-mechanically excellent (engine & all) and sound (generator, systems, tires, etc.)
-not worried too much about interior condition, as I plan on re-doing most of it
I am daily checking on ebay, craigslist, google search, etc. I have already contacted the two sellers from "For Sale" thread on here, as it looks those are the only two currently available.
Off topic: Idea is to make all kitchen components in-line. You know how some vans have the fridge on driver's side and some have the stove. In my mind, seems easier to move the stove (would use only 2-burner cooktop) next to the sink, so ideally that's what I'd like. I think that was configuration up to 1996-7. Which then also includes the little tub in the bathroom, but that's ok because I kinda like it.Anyone have experience or knowledge with this?
Thanks.
Later versions of the B190 put the stove the curbside. There are probably pictures in the gallery of one or two. Here's one - looks like the vent comes out right above the awning.Tucsonan wrote:If you decide to move the cooktop to the passenger side, and keep the exhaust hood over it, ... be mindful of your awning.

...Or, maybe a two burner cooktop might not need an exhaust hood?
Probably just leave the old vent cover in place and seal the flap underneath. Then purchase a new one for the new modification?skater wrote:Later versions of the B190 put the stove the curbside.

My concern would be what to do about the hole from the original location of the vent.
Right, that makes sense. This is why I shouldn't be internetting in the morning.Tucsonan wrote:Probably just leave the old vent cover in place and seal the flap underneath. Then purchase a new one for the new modification?
