Very unique looking, I like it.
That's the last model. It has a door lock and push to start button. It looks to be in bad shape; badly mineraled up and rusty, possibly from a damaged door gasket.
Thanks, Glenn. John has this one in white.

yes very cool indeed
Worth $60 just for the parts alone.
Gosh, you're spot on, Dan. I too have this combo in white, similar to John's.
I love the green backsplash and green buttons. It looks drastically different to the white and actually looks fantastic, IMO. I can only imagine what the coppertone version of this panel would looked like.
I'll throw this out there. If anyone in the LA area is willing to grab this and pull parts off of it (panel/motor/transmission/pump/gas valve-heating elements/bearing housing, etc.), I'd happily make it worth your time.

I’d consider getting it, but here’s my dilemma. Unfortunately, a sensor/pressure switch failed on the van’s transmission and will have to be taken to a shop to have it replaced. if It’s still available by summer, maybe I’ll try to arrange something. Just one of those things where life tends to pop up at the wrong time and moment.
