Is this yours or somebody elses?

Doesn't matter, at least it's not the usual cookie-cutter Chevy. I admire a one-of-kind project because it means the owner actually did some engineering on it instead of just buying the parts and installing them.

BTW, welcome to the group.

Strange stance in the last photo. Hope he put a 350 V8 in it. Better watch the potholes with that rim/tire combo.

Ughhh, makes me cringe. That van would not have a chance around my workplace,
with the mammoth potholes, they destroy everything.

Welcome!

Definitely different, just curious why he pulled the side mirrors off.

I'm guessing it's got those hydraulic risers in the suspension, so it can raise and lower each corner independently. This is a show car, with little practical everyday use.

i agree... what's sad is that i looks like they did this to a cargo aero.... if i were going to do this to an aero, i'd atleast do it to one with full interior so i can "pimp" the inside out too....

Talking

I actually like it a lot, I'm sure it's not most people's cup of tea, but to me it looks pretty clean. I can't see the rear, but I don't think I'd like the tail lights, but other than that I think it looks really well done.

Definately second the hope on the V8 swap
