Actually the neighbor across the street but two doors down has a complete Dodge passenger van mid 80s Windows all the way around with multiple rows of seats. It's physically in great condition. Burgundy with burgundy interior with the fiberglass swing and fiberglass visor and all the pinstriping still on its stock wheels... about two years ago I tried to help get the 318 started with some starting fluid but wasn't getting paid so I wasn't getting crazy. Lady of the house said it was her father's and they grew up getting carded to scroll in it and stuff. then heard it a few years ago and sat down the driveway ever since. They were just talking about getting it sold about a week ago...

Don't you think you should finish One race at a time.....

Honestly, if you knew the laughs we've had jabbering about this, you'd understand it's nothing about what we can get it out of one. But rather the fun times we'll have with oneDon't you think you should finish One race at a time...
Sounds like I'll be racing his pickup, so why not race it with a van ???Don't you think you should finish One race at a time...

Or we can have one big drag race at Fantasyland...

We had a Chevy van with a 408 and a 4 speed running in the Pro-Stick club that I was in. It would would run 11:50s all day with the front wheels two feet in the air. Then there was a guy with a 78 Dodge van with a 340 in it and NOS running low 11's and taking peoples money on the street like no one business. With enough HP you can make a brick fast

That sounds ultra-cool but I don't think that's the plan here..
Peanut budget...
(again save that for the wife..) his plans are much more fun and exciting than an 11 second drag van......

don't you ever grow tired a bragging about what your friends Chevy's can do......
you can't post like this. Your first part gets a "agree", and the 2nd part a "disagree" and I don't know what button to push???That sounds ultra-cool but I don't think that's the plan here..
Peanut budget...
Now an 11 second VAN is just bad to the bone!!!!!!!

I've got pictures of an AMC Pacer that would blow away anything you've owned or anything you've ever own, but what the hell does that have to do with the price of tea in China...
???? Guy posted he had an 11.50 van, and his friend had a low 11's van, right on topic. I thought that was cool beans right there! Means you mentioned my Duster was slow enough, I thought I'd bring it to your attention yours might be plenty slow itself!

I'm sure that isn't in the plans or the budget it's all about the fun. But what if the vans where built like a Pinks car everyone donated parts and time and let see who has what. That seems like a very do able idea to me. Me and my friends have built stuff just to see what would happen. I have a good friend that will built an engine just to try and idea out. We call him Test Mouse because it's all small block Chevy stuff he plays with because it's cheap or freeThat sounds ultra-cool but I don't think that's the plan here..
Peanut budget...
J par, so if were both going to be slow, lets be nerdy at the same time and be slow in vans
