    Didn't they make turbo minivans from the factory? I was pretty sure I have seen a few.

    Yes there were turbo minivans - some even with 5 speeds. But they were all Turbo I engines from the factory.

    Is that a Turbo IV engine from the '90 Daytona?

    They did make turbo minis, but I don't think they did in the cargo van. It is only a T1 since it was an automatic car, but later on I'll TII it. Also I'm swapping in a 5 speed. Right now I just need to get it running and painted.

    Just got an original 89 C/V booklet off ebay. They did make the C/V in a turbo. Was only available in a package, Turbo Sport Package. I started to disassemble the 2.5 and it looks pretty good so far, might not even have to rebuild it.

    interesting color combo. Does look pretty cool, what type of paint did u use? I was thinkin of doing mine over, not that it needs to be and it is one of the cooler color combos, the greyish white with greyish blue combo interior. and the twilight blue exterior paint.
