the last report from a day or so ago said it was still available.

Or lift it off and put it on a 4WD van chassis.

How much trouble would it be to put a new/different chassis under it????

I think I would consider converting the existing chassis to 4WD by buying a donor 4WD van or pickup and using whatever it took.

As mentioned earlier, I would not really have any good ideas until I had laid underneath it and studied it, and a potential 4WD vehicle. the rub would be the front drive set up and engine pan clearance. I don't really know if the engine sits higher in the 4WD frame or if the suspension is lower down to allow the front drive shaft and diff room to work. Studying a 4WD van would be a good start. Then study a 4WD truck of similar year and see if they use the same parts.

I would get on some 4WD forums and ask around. These guys are real parts swappers and adapters.

Never had a Chev 4WD, so not much knowledge, here.

James,

I've emailed you several times, but no answer on this Barth. Is it still available?

Maybe one of us has spam protection that is interfering. Send me your phone at cnoble7@tampabay.rr.com and I'll call instead.

Does anyone know what a new cutaway chassis costs? would a sprinter fit? can the current chassis be fitter with a more modern drive train?

because of a lack of response I am moving it to the sold forum. It might still be available???
