To answer a few questions; The grill - the Wolfeman & I made it out of stainless steel mesh & 3/8" stainless steel rod.

The Ferrari prancing horse emblem is from Ferrari, bought it on eBay!

The body kit is from Stillen.

Thanks for looking!!!

The APC rearwing spoiler, along with the rear anti-sway bar have dramatically improved the handling characteristics of the van. It has over 250,000 miles on it. It will still do 100 mph, but I probably won't force the issue after all this work. Original engine, original transmission.

Street Scene Mirrors

The billet gas door was meant for a Jeep, I think it adds another dimension to the van. The side skirts,"ground effects" are painted & ready to go on; but we are having trouble finding the rocker panels. The ground effects were designed to go on the cargo style van. This van had a factory body kit on it.

The sound system is an old Alpine CDhead unit that AInets to my iPod, Alpine Sound Field Processor/Spectrum Analyzer that will feed my tried & true Denon 4 channel amp that drives a pair of Infinity full range 6.5"s, Clarion mids & Alpine tweeters, as my front channels. The rears are an old pair of carbonfiber Orion 6.5"s mid bass, filled by Rockford Fosgate 4X6"s. One Sub, but it is a 12" Orion T2 DVC, properly ported for ROCK SOLID bass, it is driven by my bullet proof Eclipse 4channel amp bridged to two channels.
K&N Air filter, custom made dual exhausts with resonators that simply make it growl, it sounds like a GT racecar, and a rear anti-sway bar.
