Nice, how about some pics of the interior, stats (mileage, trans, etc) and plans for modding?

Interior pics!. It's all stock aside from the stereo and sick steering wheel cover. Going to keep that all as-is for now.

Automatic trans with 118,000 mi. 4M40 Diesel

Mostly trying to fix little odds and ends right now.
Replaced a bunch of burnt out interior bulbs
Replaced a missing window nut
Repainted the front bumper.

Currently attempting to fix the clinometer that ill never look at
Wheels and tires ordered! (now the waiting game)
New rear view mirror on the way. The current one wont stay up and it looks like there have been multiple attempts to fix it already
The automatic lock doesn't work on the sliding door so I have replacement parts on the way to fix that.
Planning on designing some new 90's splash graphics since all the vinyl graphics are cracking/peeling
Hoping to add a roof rack down the road, potentially suspension, but I'd like to take it on some trips to see how everything feels first!
 
A little update since its been a few months...

Swapped in various OEM replacement parts inside
- basket under passenger seat (turns out its a total PITA to slide in and out so maybe thats why it was missing)
- new rear view mirror
- sliding door contacts so i can finally lock and unlock the door automatically
- misc trim pieces that were broken/missing
- new cover for the exterior rear view mirror, also painted the mirror housing black

New lift installed as well as new upper ball joints. At least one of the ball joints had failed and the shocks were completely worn. It was way too easy to bottom out and rock the van back and forth by hand. Also the ECS button didn't seem to make any difference so no loss there!
1.5" lift from Ironman 4x4 (the front end netted out closer to 3" higher, I think the mechanics adjusted the torsion bar a little more than expected)
30x9.50 R15 BFG A/T TA KO2
15x7 gunmetal steelies

The suspension is feeling much better now except the UCAs are hitting the bump stops whenever i go over larger bumps. I may need to pickup some ball joint spacers to correct that but that means more labor and another alignment $$$

I think you might even be able to get it installed at Ironman at their new location in Sherwood.

I'd also recommend picking up the suspension correction kit from Delica Garage and getting it all installed at once
