Since we are in the business
of building custom cars, we decided we should have a "Custom car hauler".
Steve is a big fan of TV Tom Ivo and thought his Dodge transport was a
pretty cool rig.
We found a good deal on a 1967 A-100 Camper conversion and jumped in with
both feet.
The idea was to put the van body on a newer Ram-3500 chassis. While
searching for an engine for another project we came across a 1999 Bluebird bus
with a Cummins ISB 24 valve Diesel and an Allison automatic transmission. After much discussion with Cummins
Technicians, It was decided that this would be a good starting point.

It is a work in progress and you can watch here as it comes together.
It's a little rough around the
edges, but you get the idea. We still have to come up with a new paint
scheme. The current one is a little TOO different. |
