Also, some Bonneville style wheel covers will look pretty good with this flat-sided step van, and will help your FE.
yes I like the idea of the Bonneville style wheel covers and have an eye on them but may just fill in those spokes with coroplast, not sure if they are worth the 100. bucks plus shipping. Still up in the air on that one.
I was wondering if I should be building a bigger air dam or scooping the air under and building a full belly pan, well actually I was wondering which would be better. or should I be doing both. I like your front fender partial skirts and was thinking about something like that as well. i have plans on making little deflectors in back of the front wheels and in front of the rear wheels.
