Puma'd Fez Courier Van?
Anyone know of one?
Been thinking about my next car, and decided I miss having a van too much.
The only problem with my old Escort van was it was too slow, and since modified Escort vans have been done to death and bring back memories of 90's body kits, I'm thinking Courier.
I know they're a bit funny looking but I think it could be cool
Zetec S front end and wheels... Also has the advantage that some have rear seats.
Having a Mk4/5 front end I assume the Puma engine will fit nicely...
Couple of questions though,
The 1.4 petrol, is it a Zetec SE? This would be nice as I guess they use the same mounts as the 1.6 ZSE and therefore the same as the Puma.
What is the rear suspension set up? Solid beam with leaf springs like on the Escort van?
Cheers

rob the whole engine and mounts, ecu etc from the puma then it will work.
although if its a work van then you will be shitting your fuel economy which is not ideal for a work van
and it still wont be that fast due to shit aerodynamics and the fact a van wieghs shit loads loaded up.

Cheers guys, its not a work van - it will be a car for all intents and purposes, I just play in a band and have a load of stuff to cart about occasionally. Also if it does any more than 30mpg I will be happy, as thats about all I can get out of my Focus
Anyone else owned one of these? What is the rear suspension set like?
