Super Eco-Modded Dodge Caravan... Even a special surprise...

[Sean T.]

As a kid, one of my favorite toy cars was a model Dodge Caravan I had. My little brother had one just like mine but it was a Plymouth Voyager. Mine got smashed up and thrown out. I eventually got my little brothers (he didn't want it any longer) even though it was missing quite a few parts (I knew I could find a use for it someday). Not too long ago I found several of them online for sale. I bought a Caravan and a Voyager to keep as models, and a spare Caravan to experiment with...

Full upper and lower grille blocks,
Pizza pan style hubcaps,
Shaved rear door handles,
Side mirror delete on both sides,






Rear seats removed for weight reduction,



Full belly pan!!!,




White roof to keep the interior cool in the summer,






It started out with this grille, which I chose for the easier-to-ecomod upper grille,



But I swapped a bumper like this one on because it is a lot more flush with more structure.




Dad had the idea to take it a step further... and make it an electric hybrid!!! LOL

Battery in the back seat. How very... German.

That's very cute. Have you thought about using them as mod testbeds? You could set up a mythbusters style mini windtunnel! It would be awesome! You could test wheel skirts and angles on kammbacks and boat tail shapes and---

Since you have a Taurus it wouldn't be of immediate use to you (or to me as a Civic sedan owner), but it would be BADASS...and if this is fun to you I think that would also be fun .
