And the amount of in house stuff they do like building their own chassis, they didn't order one in.

You all are definitely using NASA technology. But what caught my attention overall was the back seat. To me it looks like old school dragster. If an person ever wanted that experience, well that's pretty close. Awesome job. Thank you for the video.❤

    My buddy, years ago, he had just had his 1963 econoline with the 3 on the tree restored.. Fire engine Red is just beautiful. As we are rolling along a road towards an intersection that went to a T in December with some snow on the ground and just see a sheet of ice ahead of us.
    He hits the Non-abs brakes and we end up hitting a 1986 Ford Exp 2 door . Little car but it spun us parallel with the car and as No seat belts in an Econoline i put my arm out an touched just behind my buddies head and Left my Right Femer imprint in the Engine cover about 20 inches long .
    Still there to this day, and that definitely is not a straight 6 .. Beeeeeautiful ❤😊
