I drove this van when brand new to 33,000+ miles and by weird twist of fate got it back 35 years later. ![]() Got it back at 38,000 actual miles now just past 44,000. Between stuck valves and water in the differential it's been a adventure to restore and many times I asked my self why but it was worth it. Good on gas. Will go forever on 35 gallon tank. I pull up to 5000 lbs with it. The slant six will pull like a mule. I can normally run down the highway in OD and still pull that kind of weight. She's not a show piece but she cleaned up pretty good. You can find more photos and info here. http://townwire.com/the_dodge_van.htm |

Cool story! Glad to see another slanted van out there. Looks like it has held up pretty well. |

How did I miss this? That's an excellent looking van. I drove one with that same drive train and you're right, the gas mileage was impressive for such a big vehicle. Never towed with it though. More pics! ![]() |
