    Well, as luck would have it my son is home so i will post some pics. but the best one I have is of the headlight assembly I bought . They are for Kenworth cabover trucks and will look just like the photoshoped pic of the duel headlights, But for now the engine ,clutch and xmission are installed . I have to fabricate the Trans mounts and then get the new driveshaft built.

    Is the trans pictured the one you're putting in the van? If so how are you going to shift it? Looks like some would have to ride in the back to operate the shifter. Shocked

    It's a SM420 I am going to make a long shifter that will end up right beside me like a RatFink shifter.
