NO RESERVE - 1986 Renault 4 F6 Van Project

Highlights

  • Unique tubular space frame chassis
  • Modern diesel VW engine and transmission
  • Solid bodywork with light patina

The Appeal

Not often do Renault 4 vans in this condition come around, but this one is not all that it seems. The quirky body sits upon a well made,
tubular chassis, custom built and solid. As projects go, you will not find anything like this anywhere, and with rarity on its side too, it will be a true conversation piece when completed.

Summary 

Quite frankly, amazing, this is one retro project not to be missed for someone with the knowhow and vision of what this plucky little van could be. The hard work is mostly done but with a good amount of part finding and figuring out still to do this not a small task but would not doubt be well worth it.
