Fast

wow

thx

still have it. just put the pedal down and woke up the neighbors. Changed upper cooland host and water neck; very common to rust out. Seem to have an air bubble in the heater core that I cannot get rid of. Oh well. Still fast as hell

Strange considering the ‘73 Vette was a second faster in the quarter mile at 16 sec vs the caravans 17.1 and quicker to 0-60 at 8.3 to the caravans 9.0. Van would have had to be modded to outrun that Vette or the Vette wasn’t in a good state of tune.

@@MrMpm3001 Thanks. Did my Vette have a form of air induction at speed through the wiper area ? That would affect the quarter mile?

@@davidmacphee3549 the caravan turbo was 3k lbs no driver with 150hp and 180tq. The Vette came in 3 variants in ‘73. 190hp 350 sbc 270tq, 250hp 350 sbc 285tq and 275hp 454 bbc 395tq. The Vette had a curb weight of I believe 3500 lbs. The stock numbers alone show that the caravan was outclassed in every way and required upping boost substantially along with supporting mods to get in the 15/16’s. The Vette did have cowl induction hood system but that’s not a contributing factor to why it was quicker and faster than the caravan. Stock for stock there’s no way an 88 caravan turbo is “blowing the doors off of a C3, even if the C3 were a choked up California model.

yes, i have the printed options/build sheet my dealer printed. 99% of pictures you will see of these vans have a higher speed cluster (220km/h) with RPM tach. Mine came with the barebones stock gauge cluster. Makes me laugh because I can max out the cluster very easily on the highway. This van appears to be bone stock on every option except the seats and interior.

yup officially sold in 1989 model year with some trickling out and being sold as 1990 model years as well... likely just spare, unused parts

stock. tons of wheel spin, the back curled like a fish's tail I had to let off part way

Just pull on the ax vent tbh that’s what I did came right out

Just came back to this video now after it randomly popped back in my head I wanted to watch it again. This was my dads car, he would park it literally right infront of my bedroom window but I’m a pretty damn heavy sleeper and didn’t hear anything. We figure that the junkies who stole it were living in the R.V on our property as it looked like people had been in it for sure, probably stayed in it for a day and somehow got to a second pair of keys or hot wired it… in the end the vehicle was found abandoned on some logging road with abunch of random stolen shit from other ppls houses and the junkies pissed in the Bentley and it was a write off, they were fucked lol. My pops also got a message at the time from the guy who stole its ex wife saying he was bragging about it to her and sent her proof of him driving it but ofcourse with our justice system I don’t think anything even happened to the guy, I just wish i woke up to the guy trying to steal it I had a couple homies staying over in different rooms in the house that night we would have roundhoused that junkies ass so badly but oh well he is a junkie that rolled around with a junkie girl that pisses herself in stolen vehicles he’s already living a shit enough life 😂
