So I have this 88 pick up that is really rusty. I have always wanted a 4x4 van and am not sure how to go about it. Do I get a van and make it 4x4 or keep the truck and put a van body on the chassis?
Any help would be appreciated.

Making van to 4x4 or 4x4 to van is very worst idea. sad.gif

both the vehicle has their specific identity & important as well.

it's been done but you have to be a careful driver, a 4X4 van is pretty top heavy and tipsy. There are some 4x4 van type school busses in West Virginia and Colorado, for example. (School busses vans have reinforced roofs to protect against roof collapse during rollover). This isn't a good forum for something that exotic, try google searching for "4x4 Ford van" or "4x4 Econoline". Don't forget the quotes around the string.

well.. You can have the random changes, but doesn't like that it will suit the overall body shapes for it so make changes very particularly and if than too it looks rusty.. Give the modification very correctly.
