Dude! I love vans! I had a few "Hippy Vans" back in the day. I had a 1973 Dodge Sportsman and a 1993 Chevy similar to yours.

I know you wanna do up the interior, but that will add a lot of weight and sacrifice some MPG's. My 1974 Dodge was a cargo van with no windows (except the small teardrop side windows) and for the interior, I laid plywood, and then that egg foam on top. After that the entire interior got 4" dark blue shag carpet including the ceiling and walls. It was like climbing into a big furry cave. Ahhh, the memories..........

Anyway, welcome to the forum!
