Scott, be careful, the sickness once it gets you, it spreads rapidly! Patch panels are available for any body rust but frame rust is another mater entirely. Snatch it up and drive it Saturday. BTW I used to have a later model van that had the 250 with a 3 speed on the column and it did 65mph with no problem at all. Good luck.
