That is so cool 😎 it reminds me of my RAM 2500 Cummins when I'm towing my 5R it's all over the road. Been looked at several times lots of new parts. It's just a RAM with Crappy Engineering , I only keep it for the power of the Cummins. If it ever falls apart I might chop up something like that Van and put The big Ol Cummins in it. I could probably pull down a skyscraper with it.

I double dawg dare you to make a Civair. A Citation front with a Corvair back. It would have two engines and four-wheel drive. Think of the advantage of being able to use either or both engines. It has to have a trailer hitch to tow the Cortation with the front of the Corvair and the back of the Citation behind it for its gas tanks. You may be the person to do it!

Something I can't grasp my European head around is US road policy. More often than not, whenever the US police stops a driver for exceeding the speed limit they proceed as if the poor guy was trying to assassinate Lincoln again. Meanwhile you can drive down the road with a DIY contraption that was obviously designed by bunch of bloody dunked muppets, made of parts of a dishwasher, a stream locomotive, the fuselage of a wrecked Huey found in the jungles of Vietnam with the skeleton of the pilot still attached to the seat and somehow this is legal. That's fun though.
