I got this Ford surfer van to use for all the many great parts. I intend to trade it off with 2 sets of new wheels and tires.  But it's such a handsome van that lm toying with the idea of doing another 4x4 van. Just a thought.

I remember in the 70's there was a company that converted these vans to 4x4, I believe they were all 8 lug wheels too.

Mine came with those wheels, but I have others to use. I would be using the suspension from one of the Revell, GM trucks. I have a bunch of them, and I checked, they fit pretty good.

That's cool. I haven't seen a Quadravan in many years.

What are the wheels that you're using? Are they attached to any suspension or just placed under the truck?

Hi John, The wheels are Pegasus 19" & 23" Hellas. They are mounted to the '39 Wagon Rod chassis that I am using for this build ?

Cheers
