Welcome Rick, I've seen that car around a few times. Sure is a great van. Some more pics would be nice.

Thanks for the kind words guys , the car must look better in pics than I thought.
The motor has twin strombies , big cam , extractors and a bit of head work , haven't got any pics of the engine bay 'cause it's not real pretty under there but I'll see if I can take some.

The floor shift is next on the to-do list , I have a real nice one but its broken so looks like
I'll have to find another.
