Thing would be good in a straight line. Might be a real hair raiser on wet twisty roads tho.

IF i had it I would take allbut the front seats out and make it a "passion pit" type van. deck it out for play

This is very, very common where I come from. Guy put rotaries into all sorts of vans. Mazda Bongos are the most popular but I've seen rotaries in Ford, Toyota and Nissan vans.

It would nearly be worth moving to NZ just to be able to legally drive with a 6/71 blower sticking through the bonnet. :sm_headba :
