Reminds me of the $1500 challenge. http://detroit.craigslist.org/okl/cto/1601502737.html
There was a dodge minivan in the $1500 challenge. That was the one vehicle I still remember, and that was the first issue I picked up. I pulled out a sub card from the mag and mailed it in before I even got home from Boarders.

I have seen that van run. It used to show up at Milan occasionally. I can vouch for it's speed.

Scam. The van in those pics belongs to a guy named Paul Smith, out in the Chicago area. I believe he still owns the van. His website used to be www.turbominivan.com IIRC.

Interesting list of parts in the ad also. Anyone know where I can find some scocskukk 15# injectors and a tattfidie boost pressure adjuster for my car?

Yeah, considering it has a 2.5L, not a 2.2L should be the first clue, aside from the other "issues" with the ad.

Still, pretty cool that someone would do that with Paul's van, he's like almost famous and stuff :)
