Oh, yeah, that other "Hemi", sorry.
Also, just another photo I found lookin' at vans on the internet.
Ah, I didn't know it was a photoshop. I just post what I find.
I'm diggin' all those chopped vans though.
I also found this. Which is clearly not a photoshop, but I wish were real (for obvious reasons).

Haha! All good man, I just fell in love and had really hoped someone had actually built a beast like that.
Chopped vans are the best.

I just had a look at old bones vans to start with.
Prices on American made beasts are bullshit down here. Even for a scrapper to tear apart and build back up.
I did find this though:

I was actually impressed at that price point.
But what saddens me is that I know you wouldn't even spend half that to pick the same van up in the US.
Found this, too:

Nice.
A few years ago I nearly bought an old Holden hearse, not unlike this one:

only it was a dark blue and a slightly different model.
problem would have been running the bastard thing.
Fuel had just gone over $1 a litre then and we were outraged.
If only we'd have seen how high it would spike....

That thing could be awesome. Just needs to be matte black and to go all gasser on it...with the velocity stacks sticking out the hood.
Yea, we complain about $3.50 a gallon here, I couldn't believe the prices in the UK when I was there...and it was per litre...just insane.

Those are great ideas.
