    Unless a domestic parts source can be found for these, I would find this van a hard sell.

    I like it but like Nate said parts are probably very hard to come by.

    I was told that parts are hard to find even in the UK. These Commer/Dodge vans were last made many many moons ago.

    If the body is good, what else do you need that Ford or Chevy can't provide? Datsun or Toyota drivetrains would likely have plenty of power as well. If the Commer parts are rare then that equates to $$ if you yard it all out and update it to something common.

    Good point Rip, then you could get a nice crate 550 HEMI for it!
