I question though that if it was a Holden van, would you be saying the same thing?

I think it's okay, but I would not spend that money to fix up a van and use it for work purposes. It'd be a great shaggin' wagon or camper...something like that...

I think it looks good though...

Massive props to the guys who built it.
lol... so the only thing wrong with that dog ugly conversion is the Holden engine? What a suprise.

I might go put an FPV kit on a Hyundai Lantra, spray it purple and chuck some massive chrome rims on it and post pictures and watch all the praise come in about how it looks so good and it is amazing.

Vomit.

The front end looks like an XR6 is trying to escape being fused with a van

Do you remember the 'Renault Espace F1'? That in my opinion is the best van ever!

Best thing about this is...Vanning isn't dead! Reminds me of the wild creations from the 80's Sandmans with Trans Am fronts etc.


There is a Escort going around with a BA front end, including a V8 supercar splitter

Nice work on the van but it doesn't tick many boxes for me.
It is pretty ugly.
