http://www.usedvictoria.com/classified- ... n_28167188 Just remove the rear bench in the summer bolt in a hunk of plywood from the front of the engine compartment to the back of the middle seat. Carve a hatch in it & you can relive the 80's with a sweet 6 foot raised bed & storage galore Future subi, ford ( http://www.bostig.com/faq/ ) or even v.w. power plants await you in your groovy adventure wagon
Thermals are good.

I actually thought this was my old 84 dodge 1/2 ton when I saw the pics. These are awesome vans and likely has the 318 engine. This one is still fresh if the mileage is correct. Only things to look a little closer at woud be body rust. Everything else is pretty self explanatory.

They can handle the malhat and modern highway cruising fine?rvanderbyl wrote:I actually thought this was my old 84 dodge 1/2 ton when I saw the pics.

These vans have power to spare for most highway driving and should cruise up the Malahat with ease. Cruising at 110-120 is no problem even with a load of camp and windsurf gear. Even La Ventana should be within range. Seems odd that it only sleeps 2. Mine with the identical raised roof slept 2 up and 2 down. So I'm thinking they converted the upper bunk to storage If so...that could be gutted and a lot of sails, booms and maybe even boards could fit inside up top. I could be wrong cause the layout looks like it could be a bit different than my 84.
