The van comes with a 202, gearbox, etc, not the origanal engine but thde same date code and complete drive train... Being new to vans I can now see some of the attraction to these vans, they allow you to have a fun practical car that looks good and sounds good, a bit hard if the van has a six . I got all that from the 1977 interview on van culture on this web site , also little bit strange seeing two guys having a interview laying down in the back of the van back in the 70`s. Not the typical 70`s bloke thing, might of been a hidden agenda from GMH, anyway my choice of V8 would 350 chev.
