A GB from the CB
Jeff Tinsley of Sellersburg, IN became the newest owner of this Greenbrier. In April, 2022, Jeff shared:
"I bought this Greenbrier in February, 2022 from James Davenport of Harrisburg, PA. He owned it for at least 12 years, maybe more. Mr. Davenport previously lived in Delaware and thought the van spent most its life in the Chesapeake Bay area.
Mr. Davenport started working on the underbody, suspension, and engine right after he purchased it but did not continue into other areas. I plan on slowly restoring it back to original condition."
The van appears to have its original 110 HP engine, given the date code of T0827RU--an August build date for a van built in September. The code also indicates a 4-speed transmission, which the Greenbrier has,
Here are some images that Jeff shared in April 2022:
Unfortunately, Jeff determined the van was too rusty to save and he cut it up in early 2024. He was able to save some of the upper body panels though.
