Summary

Chateau 4x4 Van powered by a 460ci V8 engine with cut out exhaust and a brand-new automatic transmission.

Details

This van was bought from the original owner who had the 4x4 conversion done at the Ford dealership the day it was purchased in 1979. The engine was also changed to a 460ci at that time and is backed by automatic transmission. Some of the updates done included pulling the engine and completely going through it from top to bottom. It has all new pistons, rebuilt heads, new manifold, carb, and distributor. The transmission is all-new inside as well with a little taller gear for towing. It has custom-made bumpers that started out as Rhino bumpers but were cut and modified to fit. A custom-made roof rack was made and a motor home air conditioning unit is housed on top along with a tank for an electric shower. There are LED lights all over to provide plenty of light. Housed in the front bumper is a 12,000lb remote-control winch. The interior is all-new and complete with custom wrap-around sofa and full race seats with harnesses up front. The fully custom wrapped dash has all digital gauges and a custom-made engine cover. Hard wood floors and LED lighting that changes color complete the interior and there is also a gun rack under the seat. The couch in the rear has a cushion to make it into a bed and the batteries under the back couch have their own plug in charger and separate alternator from the engine. It also has a brand-new exhaust that has cut outs so you can hear the roar of that fresh engine.
