I am all about the hot rod van. I am building my van in the 70's style with some updates but the engine, small or big block will be built to 400+ hp & I will be running a 4-speed Muncie trans behind it. Brad

Well if whipping up on "tuner" cars from light to light.Giving Mustangs and Camaros a run for there money.Then the "Beast" is a Hot Rod van.....
while all of my other vans had "stock" drive lines in them.This Van was the first one I have put together with just a couple of performance modifications.
Just enough to scare the hell out of most of my "car guy" buddies,and still be able to drive it 7 hours to an event.

We know there are no catalogs to build this van from.I would be really interested to see what they could come up with.....

Most main stream auto magazines, books, etc. Do little more than bolt on whatever go fast goodies they can. Sometimes they do cooler stuff but it is getting rare. When is the last time you saw a 502 end up in a build car, or a chop, etc. It is all about advertising and money (from performance part manufacturers).


If you are going to be a bum, you may as well be their king.

It was funny watching the black Dodge trying to do a burnout. With those slicks on there, the hotter they got the more they would stick.

And I think with all the rubber put down that didn't help getting it to spin either
