    Looks great. Post a pic of it at the highest the suspension goes and driving ride height if you could. Curious on the floor as well.

    Love it. I'm planning something very similar. Just wondering if you could post some pics of the front wheelwell area? Looks awesome by the way!

    I'm also going to have my van lay body. I keep thinking about wheels size in the front, looks like you just went for it! Does anyone know any Dodge window vans that lay out? From what I can find, I'll be one of the first. What are you doing as far as front seats and mounting?

    As I suspected, this was done without regard for the seating position of the driver and passenger..... A 5' driver would still be looking out the very top of the windshield, but unable to reach the pedals and likely need a very deep-dish steering wheel to fit legs underneath!
    Where the wheels have to go on something like this is where the seats belong....
    BTW.... Top notch chassis work!.....Would make a great show display rig for a shop that does this kind of stuff.....
