I have 20 pieces of chrome from a 1969 A108 Van. Some are in good shape, some ok. This is not the complete set of chrome but it does include the front pieces and the two longest pieces on the drivers' side. I'd prefer to sell the whole lot to one buyer but willing to part out for individual...

While my 1969 A108 van is being repainted and I'm waiting on engine parts, I have the stock 727 tranny sitting in my garage. It was parked for 14 years prior to me buying it. What are people's recommendations for it? Supposedly it ran before it was parked but everything is caked in dirt. Do I...

I'm building a 390 (4" stoker kit) from my 318 LA engine to power my A108 van (adding aluminum heads and probably EFI). The purpose of this van will be to cruise on the highway but I want good low-end torque. I'm planning to keep the compression ratio low to run off pump gas. I'd like to retain...

The tranny will not drop from the rear support after removing the bolt. It seems like there is a bushing holding it in place! What do...

Hey all, I recently purchased a fairly clean 1969 A108 and I want to either swap the stock 318 engine with something like a 400 stroker, or maybe put a stroker into the 318 with EFI. Any idea what I can do with the least amount of modification to the engine compartment, transmission and drive...
