Hello everyone, I am new to the whole van scene. I always wanted one and now i do.
I just bought this very recently and don't know much about it other than it's fantastic, i was wondering if there is a site to decode the vin as there is no paperwork to speak of.

The vin wont tell you all what you want to know. Engine, gvw, chassis etc. Options are in the option code, and there are online decoders for that I think.

Look for the decal inside the glove box. Hopefully its still readable.

Well, by looking at your picture.. you have a GMC Vandura G15. Which is equivalent to a Chevrolet G10. What year is your van? You might be able to narrow it down.. and figure out more specs.
