Here's my Fj-6 Fleetvan. Its currently getting the original F-134 engine rebuilt. Eventually I'd like to do an engine swap, mustang II front end, rear 4 link, etc., but for now I'm just going to try and enjoy it for what it is.

Perfect candidate for an ice cream truck!

Several of these have been converted to ice cream trucks. I want to use mine as a rolling billboard for my business. I can't wait to start driving it. These are designed to be driven standing up or sitting down. I wonder what the local law enforcement will think when they see me driving it while standing 🧐.

I'd be converting that into a camper so fast! Love it, man. Very cool!

Not a bad idea, but I'm not sure I'd be comfortable going highway speeds (not even sure if it's capable) driving it to said camping destination with its current motor and suspension 😅. Believe it or not, this van has a factory LSD.

How short are you guys? No way I could lay down in that comfortably.

Here's a quick PS rendering of how I'm hoping it will look with the new rims and tires. Also red accent stripe instead of the gold. I can't get over the cost of wide white-wall tires! I might have to use the old-school method of having a set of regular white walls ground. There is a guy local to me who offers this service.
