As per above.
My cousin in Botswana has given me this Chevy Crew Bus and he will be bring it sometime next week. This six doored Beast needs a bigger engine that can pull it like a paper. Currenlty it doesnt have the engine nor gearbox. Budget is not a problem. Anything bigger with lots of power that can pull this Beast will do!!!

I'll be honest and say its the first time i've seen a truck like that.
Only a nice Chevy V8 engine would probably do this truck justice.
Good luck!!

DUDE!
That thing is awesome .. I agree with Ebie .. nothing smaller than a V8 .. that body only probably weighs like 2 tonnes!! You got a lot of potential right there!
