This front was used on the G30 from 1985 through 1991. This ambulance is most likely a 1991 unit. A example: http://ambulance-photos.com.s3.amazonaws.com/30.jpg |

Why is it most likely a 1991 model? Or is that just your guess? |

I did look the grill types up for Chevy Ambulances from the Netherlands here: http://www.ambulance-photos.com/countries.asp?id=2. There are a number of Chevy Ambulances that have the grill seen on this particular model used. The double stacked headlights located in the grill. Models before 1985 had a smaller (or similar to 1985) slotted grill with no visible light. Models after 1991 had grills with prominent horizontal lines and smaller vertical lines. Examples of this is shown here: /vehicle_112965-Chevrolet-Chevy-Van-1992.html (1992 model) /vehicle_406650-Chevrolet-Chevy-Van-1986.html (1986 model) Link to "4.bp.blogspot.com" (1991 model,although it is hard to see the grill lights) /vehicle_112982-Chevrolet-Chevy-Van-G-20-1983.html (1983 model) -- Last edit: 2011-07-01 01:21:39 |

Yes I know the differences in grilles. But I was curious why, with this one having the 1985-1991 grille, you would say it's probably a 1991 model. By the way, the one in your last link that you ID'd as a 1983 actually has the 1985-1991 grille. |

I said it was a 1991 model for the fact that The Netherlands did use a good number of 1991 Chevy Van Ambulances. But in hind sight, I should have been more broader with my estimate of years than I was. As for the 1983 van, The grill has no lights inside, so that would make it a 1983 model, unless I was wrong. |

No worries, I was just looking to clarify. I'll default it to a 1985 model just to play it safe for now. |

UPDATE: I was looking at VWE, and have found out that this particular ambulance (PV-51-XP) is a 1986 model. Check it here: Link to "www.vwe.nl" It says that it was dissembled sometime in 2005.
