Dkevdog, I know, only suggested in jest. But, I've given that possibility some thought (some say I've got to much time on my hands). Here's what you do. Take one rolled 2500 auto regular cab truck, remove the body, relocate the engine to a mid engine location, behind the drivers seat. Since it's an auto, no need to worry with a clutch and all that would entail. The radiator and some accessories would remain in the stock location. Cool with a electric fan, prehaps two, access through the van hood. Have a drive line shop fab a driveshaft to tie the auto to the rear yoke (be a real short one).



Then take the cheap long wheebase Caravan or Voyager and with lots of skillfully applied sawsall/cutting torch/welder craftmanship, graft said van onto the truck frame.



Build a dog box for the engine transmission, add lots of insulation and carpet. Button it up and go play



There you have it. A slot car like van that gets great mileage, pulls big trailers and runs forever.



Better yet, make it a 4whl dr.
