Have had the idea floating around for some time in my head, Finally got a junklot of cans from flea bay (wish I had a before) photos of the mess the vans were They are undergoing major transformation! I get the Dually Idea from a fellow mcm Member Reptile guy Nick rizzo he has 2 ford excursions One of which he is transforming into a dually veggie powered machine so i'm making a dually econoline 4x4 van the other van is going to be a 351 ford powered street machine mural van the dually is going to be a dual quad 427 ford power (if it fits) enjoy!

The sliding door is going to be replaced, by the less common swing out side doors the doors come from a 3rd junker van body's front doors have to fab up the rest of the door frames, trim them back up, had to make a notch in the passenger side fender flare for the duallys due to the door clearence, the dually fender flares are trimmed down fender flares from the 56' ford truck bed

Cool vans Dan! I really like that cool purple and white krinkle paint job. I'll be keeping an eye on your work here because I've got a couple van kits myself.

No, the van in photos 2, 3, and 5 thru 8 and 11. You mean you didn't do that on purpose. I was just yankin' your chain man!
How many different vans are there in this thread? 4?
