InactiveA buddy left this at my house, I don’t know what he wants for it but I know he knows I’d love it. And I do, It’s old but soooo cool. How often do ya see a 1 ton dually Van-up? Man that thing would make a great tow vehicle, Especially if it’s 4 wheel drive. I may not be able to refuse it LOL.

Inactiveis that customized for pulling a fifth wheel? Is there seats in the second row or ????
I’d say the van is customized for pulling a fifth wheel and/or whatever type of trailer, I’m sure it was made by an aftermarket company that would buy a van on a 1 ton dually frame and cut the body off behind the front seats (or ordered it that way) and added their own fiberglass shell behind it. She said she saw a table in the back but couldn’t tell if it has captain chairs or a bench seat, I would bet on captain chairs since it’s made from a van body/cab but who knows. A bed back there would be cool but since it’s made to pull a 5th’r I guess ya wouldn’t really need it
July 16, 2015 at 12:44 pm #370254July 16, 2015 at 12:56 pm #370257I could think of a dozen uses for a unit like that.

July 16, 2015 at 1:09 pm #370262I’m sure there are a few Gearheads on here that would tow with that custom.

edit: I just looked again, it isn’t paisley, looks more like motorcycles. My comment stands. 😀

ProBet it sucks the fuel pretty fast. Any clues to what it weighs?

What is that is it an Econino
A cross between a Econoline and a Elcomino lolJuly 16, 2015 at 10:10 pm #370434OK that thing could be a really cool toy hauler with a fresh coat of paint. Is the bed big enough for your RZR to fit on Dabbs?

I’ve never seen one of those before.
It looks like a mini semi.July 17, 2015 at 8:04 am #370626I think they used to used to sell those in a cab and chassis to fleet customers for custom big box van bodies. Looks like a van customizer outfit bought some to make a unique tow vehicle.
