    So— I have recently discovered an outfit that will take a E-350 4wd Econoline van and drop whatever engine and transmission you want in it and put a bed and stove and fridge and sink and…… never mind— I very well could be on the path of the most ultimate chukarmobile ever known to mankind

    Some time back, when life was a little different and you could actually build something…..

    1964 mercury comet, 2 door…..
    The engine that was squeezed into was a well designed and built 351 from a wrecked Pantera…..
    Scariest car I ever drove.

    I missed my opportunity to buy a 4wd mid 80’s dodge van several years back. I have regretted it ever since.

    7.3 cornbinder power stroke with 373s and a 6 speed manual would be sexy enough for me

    I had an 81 Bronco with a 351. That’s one of the cars that you regret selling. Right up there with the 68 c-10. But they weren’t worth anything back then

    Where those pantera engines “European tuned” . Meaning higher reving like a Ferrari type v8? Don’t even know if that’s a thing, some of those European cars go to a silly high rpm
