I know that GM made a 4x4 Chevy van in the 1970's. I would like to build one. Should I put the suspension and driveline on the van frame, or should I use the pickup frame under the van? I know nothing about vans. Does anyone have any suggestions please? Thanks. *NM*
GM didn't have a Factory Built 4x4 van in the 70s but companies such as Quigley did 4x4 conversions. *NM*
OK, thanks for letting me know. I still need to know the best way to build one though. *NM*
Most of the aftermarket GM 4x4 van conversions.in the '70s and'80s were done by a company called Pathfinder *PIC*

One other thing about that van kit......
Monogram did that off road Chevy van (desert rat?) in late 70s/early 80’s , maybe could find one of those to use or look at for how it’s configured? *NM*
I'd love to find a nice, unbuilt kit of that, that I can afford. The prices for those are too high for me. *NM*
FYI Scott. I just watched a build video on the Revell Van and the box says 1/25 scale. The AMT kit might be easier to find, but if you're looking for the "Groovy" interior parts, not so much. *NM*

It's cool you like it, but they lost me with the cinder blocks under the jack stands with the full weight of the van on them...
I met the Quigley reps at a few of our GM Fleet shows
