Here's a few pics of mine. I ordered it from Transitowne Dodge in Williamsville, NY, back in '75. Optioned it for the upcoming "gas & oil shortages". B200, 318, Manual 3-on the tree, Heavy Duty Suspension, Dana 3:23 Sure Grip, Chrome accent pkg, Tinted Glass...My Dad and I did the inside with a full inner shell
of plywood, then paneled it, with cabinetry, to double as a "Travelin'" Van. I've done several X-Country trips over the years in it, and it still runs like it did back then. Changed out the manual trans for an auto when I started pulling a boat, to make it easier on the ramps. It's never seen a NY winter, so the body is still in Great shape, and had one repaint to cover the low grade factory finish of that day. Has about 92K on it now, and usually makes several appearances at Mopar shows in the NY/Penn area, as I know I can jump in and drive it where ever the road goes...

This is a van I did some trading for in 2012. I owned a '71 Travelall 1210 Diesel, decided I was bored with that, and found this van in northwestern Arkansas. It was a SoCal van from new, and just hit every cool button with me! So, we traded. I had the van until three years ago, after which I bought the Imperial the day the van sold! It's a '79 B250, 360 4-bbl, auto, f/r air & heat, Icebox, sofabed, closet, killer stereo and amps, and was pretty much how it was in '79. The wheels and tires were changed out from chrome smoothies to these American Racing bits. The functional side exhaust made this sound sooooo good! The dual fuel tanks gave this a decent cruise range, too. The roof spoiler is off a 2008 Challenger and fits perfectly! The visor and fiberglass scooped hood were also added by the PO. It's with the same guy that bought it from me, and you'll see it often at Mopar and van events in the DFW area and beyond.
very nice
