Opinions on Dayvan donor.

http://pages.ebay.com/link/?nav=item...d=281493997407

What do you clever guys think of this? Local-ish from me. About 30 miles.

May be able to buy it for £800 or $1250. I need a steering column and Martin needs a 350 and gearbox.

Do these vans parts swop over easy onto our trucks??

Things like the rear axle onto our trucks.

Opinions and advice apreciated.

Re: Opinions on Dayvan donor.

The engine and trans of course will work, and the column should fit with a little work. The front disc brakes are good for upgrading our trucks, including the brake booster and master cylinder. However, the differential will be too wide and the steering box won't work.

Thanks for the reply, that limits its useability and finding a place to store it etc changes the game a bit.
