Vannin' Home Forums Dodge Mini's Radical 96 Caravan from Showtrux 2005

Ok you mini guys and gals I have a treat for you coming in February on Showvans.net
I don't want to reveal too much, but it is the sweetest looking Caravan I have ever seen. The owner was inspired by many of the vans on the site, especially Never Enough. It will likely change some vanners' attitudes towards minis and we will most likely be seeing it in the magazines soon enough, it is great to have the first crack at it like this. I am wondering why it took so long for someone to build a van like this, hats off to Ken for possibly starting something that may catch on.

Cool! I can't wait to see it! I know it is only a matter of time until people start customizing minis...

i did what i could when i was a 1st year college student. i have some pics in a photo album that i take to most van runs. hey! youre in PA, pretty much in the middle of alot of the east coast van runs. maybe ill see ya at some and i can give you a few ideas.

although i can admit that my interior in the mini was not very practical. it was pretty much an L shaped bed that went from behind the drivers seat to the middle of the van, and over to the back end of the slider, all the way to the back doors. basically it just left an open space on the floor by the slider door, but it had alot of storage space inside, i made it so the top panels could lift up and out, w/ 2 8" subwoofers in ported boxes facing the rear hatch.

it had more sleeping space (for 1 person anyways) than you could dream of in my current van! even when i build my interior in this van i dont think the bed will be as big as the bed in my mini!. ill try to remember to dig up some pics and scan them again.

Yeah, maybe we will meet up...I plan on hittin some runs this summer. Right now my mini is as stock as they come, but I do have some ideas for her!! And I am always looking for more ideas.

Virtual, is it than green one with the 440 from Ebay?? I love that van!

no this one is red, chopped with 2 gull wing side doors. I told you it is cool and he might come to the Nats !

ok where can i go to see the caravan put up a link
