It shows no signs of slowing down. I would replace the lower intake gaskets while it's out. It will save time later. The fuel tank may be added or you can put an electric pump in yours.

Good thought.
An Astro van has a front sub frame (like an F car), so you could leave everything intact and perhaps even roll it around on the front wheels (to help with shipping and handling).
