    Quite simply an outstanding build by an obviously good guy. One of the coolest aspects of it is its genuine practicality, e.g., pretty decent fuel economy, very low key/stealthy and clearly reliable daily driven work vehicle. With a very few tweaks to the transmission and suspension this thing could probably easily be a high ten second quarter mile van without sacrificing day to day utility. Great job showing what hot rodding is really all about!

    @Muffin_Masher 3 года назад +2

    Vans are underrated, you can fit more in them than a ute (more length and height) and they have better security than a ute even with a canopy. They are also cheaper second hand because they don't hold value like utes do. Of course they are an absolute dog to work on with everything being under the seats and they handle like a toaster with a lift kit :P But this is indeed something I need in my life :D just without the LS, a 4 litre would fit nicely and be slightly less annoying to work on, I just can't stand multibank engines unless they are mounted up the front in a rear wheel drive the way god intended :P Vans and front wheel drive V6's make me question my life choices sometimes, you know you must have pissed the boss off when you get given all the vans that come in to service :D
