    Hello all. well i traded my 63 Econoline for a really nice Harley.... so I needed a van. Decided to get this Dodge A100. I/6. Love the /6, had many in the valiants.  I've restored. So Im very happy with this new adventure and will post some images when I figure out how. ...

    im glad to be back.....

    The bottom end is in pieces, front cap is off, second cap is off. so is the 3rd. only rear cap holding crank in place....
    like i said I SAVED it. i don't understand people....

    the oil pump is off. the oil pan is off. the van is in total disarray.

    i removed dog house. getting ready to pull motor.

    Wanted:  straight axle disk brake conversion kits.
    any help or suggestions will be great appreciated.

    Thank you for your time

    Good to see another gem Saved! Congrats and good luck with the build. I look forward to seeing your progress. If you need help posting pics feel free to ask and I'd be happy to help. There's a few threads on posting pics and the main thing to remember is to choose the 640 pixels setting to make sure the pics don't get cut off.
    Is it an automatic or manual shift? Looks like a Great project!!! cheers Twisted Evil What a Face

    Congrats! As for the brake system, I used the Scarebird components.
