Just joined up here. My name is Avery, I'm 28 years old and have some old mopars. I've always appreciated vans since I was young and last year I finally bought one.. A 1978 Dodge b300 cargo from my father. Maybe some here can provide some information on it. My van seems a bit of an oddball...it is a factory B300 (1 ton) with 8 lug wheels, factory sure grip axle. drivetrain is a 360 mopar with 3 on the tree. The kicker is, this was ordered in a short wheelbase (shorty) cargo configuration! I have not found much online regarding production info and the rarity of this setup. I'd like to know because this van is a rust free southern example and defiantly a keeper!

To my knowledge this is a rare combination. Has to be a heavy duty shorty for sure. Welcome!

Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a well preserve body, but rather to skid in broadside in a cloud of smoke, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and proclaiming
Thanks for the welcome! I am defiantly excited about this project. I have a dodge station wagon as well, so you can tell I have a thing for cars outside of the mainstream. I am looking for window-less rust free side "barn" doors and rear doors for this if anybody knows any leads. I am in central Ohio.
