Hello this is my 1977 Dodge Tradesman B-200 Custom Van. She has a short wheel base giving her a sweet style. She sits on vintage bias Pro-Trac tires with vintage 1976 Crager rims on the back and a newer set of cragers on the front (a gift from the koolest kat in da world my brother Kev). The original motor was a 318, my other bro Daryl Daze and i swaped in a 360.
We installed a new Holley carb, new leaf springs, new gas lines, hoses, wiring and a rear end re-welded to accomodate large rear tires and many other new componets along it's 7 year restoration. (In Thunder Bay i can only work on her in the summer, winters are kindy nasty!) In a few weeks i will be adding on a front spoiler and matching front flares that blend. (Stand by for new pictures of that job).
The interior has been a labour of love, she has a Kenwood CD player, 8 speakers and a sweet power amp to give em' the balls they need to crank my METAL/Stoner Rock:) She also has a nice little cooler inside to keep yer beers nice and kold:). Also of note is a CB Radio with a 4 ft whip on the top.
The grill is a vintage VANTREK grill (SUPER RARE VINTAGE PART FROM CALIFORNIA)....you don't see these very often...as a matter of fact they are very brittle and tend to get cracked and destroyed,,,,we restored this beauty back to it's original state and it's custom look speaks for itself!
Thanks to all yer kind coments and to all Vanners....cheers!
VANNER FOR LIFE!
Darren
