Time for a new Ford SuperVan.....

There are a lot of things I would do if I had way more money than I could possibly know what to do with.  And too much free time.  One would be to take my Gen1 TC and put a V8 motor in the back with a 6 speed transaxle.  It would take some engineering and a whole lot of fabrication, but it would be quite the sleeper.  It would have to have bigger than stock wheels and tires to avoid lunching them, but it sure would be fun.  It will never happen.

Doing that with a TC would be even better.  Because it weighs less.

Many years ago I saw an article where someone crammed a Rolls-Royce "Merlin" (same engine as in P-51) into an ORIGINAL Austin Mini. Problem was how to fit larger fuel tank(s).

Almost bought one of these when I was looking for a van to convert. Good condition, good price. Missed it by ... that ... much.

One I was looking at even was an automatik!

 

There was one of those for sale near me about 25 years ago, except it was a window version.  The seller wanted $3500, and I didn't have $3500 at the time.  I still kinda want one someday.
