If you saw our lifted Chevy K10 LS swap get back on the road last week, then you know we got ourselves a 1976 GMC Vandura boogie van! This retro roller came from the era of disco balls and shag carpet, and has all of the authentic patina to prove it. This project van has survived all this time in the California climate; but now that it's in South Florida, right by the coast, we have to really make sure this van doesn't just rust away into a pile of dust! That's why we called out the guys from Poppy's Patina. They brought with them their polyurethane clear coats to help us seal in our original patina paint job and stop the sun, the salt, and the rain from eating away at this van! We're showing you step by step just how easy it is to get your patina car or truck protected from the elements, and we're even giving you guys a chance to win a clear coat kit to protect your own ride!
We also need your help! We have an idea of what we want this van to look like; an air bagged patina van, with an era appropriate interior. But what do we do about the power plant? That's where y'all come in! We want to know what you'd like us to slam into the drivetrain of the GMC Vandura to get these tires smoking! Leave your suggestions in the comment section below!

That GMC, I feel, would be a great candidate for the 3L inline 6 Duramax from a 2020 1500 truck ..
We've been gettin a lot of diesel suggestions! We'd love to do that!
@@SalvagetoSavage make it mid_engine
@@mrstudiodaddy it.....is....
@@SalvagetoSavage and 4x4 on 37s
Been planning that myself - with a 5-7" drop,
A few other goodies in mind as well.
Glad to see this episode. Casey’s customs uses poppy’s clearcoat
Throw a Mercedes’ m0606 in that badass van
Guess what? Thanks to all your help, the ratty 78 red patina duster, with the half and half mixture. Turned out absolutely amazing,, We absolutely love it. Sure wish their was a way to send you a picture of it... It's a must to see. You're the man!
Yes!!!! That's awesome. Make sure to send it to Poppy's Patina on instagram so they can share your picture with their community they've built. We're so stoked your patina project turned out well!
I already saw a lot of 2J, LS and others swaps... I haven't saw a inline 6 diesel from a truck tho. That would be nice! Great content guys! Keep em coming!
A diesel would be sick! Thanks for all the support!!
What a sick van, that lowered render looks so dope! Good luck with the build guys, tuning in for this once again!
Thanks for the support! We have some ideas in the works but we want to make something absolutely crazy that y'all will love too!
I haven't seen a CHOPPED van yet... Slammed and Chopped would be AWESOME
a chopped vandura would be sick!!
love the poppy boys, what a pleasure to have them at the shop for a few days! awesome product and even mo awesomer dudes.
GBGBFT !!!!! Damm I miss those old things. Maintenance is going to be a beast no matter what you put in it. So low profile headers low rise intake or straight up fuel injection is going to be a must. Keep it simple and clean. Air tanks out of welding bottles on the sub frame would add a wicked touch
Mid mounted GMPP 502/4L80 sans driveshaft with zoomies stick'n out in front of the Rr tires and a "cold beverage" cooler where the engine USED to be. 😎🤙
Definitely tail lights ..like the DeLorean from skeptik innovation 👌🏽
Oh definitely!!
Vw TDI swap. Even one of the newer engines like the cjaa, would be awesome to see. Reliable, torquey and tunable. Low and rolling coal!
LETS GO!!!! There's a green van just like this that runs around my home town.....I've always wondered what one would be like decked out. Glad I get to see how this is going to turn out!!!!
Find out who drives it and we'll race them when we're all done with this one! lol
You need a 450hp Porsche Cayenne 4.5 liter all aluminum twin turbo engine, tranny, transfer case, and all that cool jive.
A K24 swap in the van would be pretty coool.
Love the way that van looks, with the patina & the dented fender. I use the aluminum foil trick when I paint break calipers!
The dents really make it authentic!
When I saw Tim’s last name. Tim “The Tooooolman” Tayyyyylor!!!
Once we put a mattress in the van, it's essentially Home Improvement! lol
Make the van a straight parking lot party!! Awesome inside, casting couch!! 🤣 flat screen tv,Playstation 5, sick led under glow. With a super charged lsx. Kinda like the dodge drift vans in Japan. That's would be awesome 👌 👏 👍 I have those same gold wheels on my 1979 short wide.
Love them old vans.
Miss my old Vandura(same model, color(PATINA) and year) . Lived out in Cali. and pulled the 4500 foot El Cajon Mountain on the Daily. 350 swapped Stoker....Mannnn
We all have that car or truck (or van) that we wish we never let go! Hopefully this helped bring back some fond memories!
As long as it has one'or 2 big 🐌 on it...yep a torque monster...
Oh we have something super special for the boost, no matter what motor's going in there!
Nice! I’m glad I got to rock the 70’s. I wish I could go back.
Thanks for the memories, thumbs up!
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for the support. We're definitely going to need to add a bit more 70s flare to it when it's all said and done too!
2JZ turbo would haul ASS‼️👍👍👀 fix the drive to hold the power will be hot🚀🏎 BURN OUT COMPETITIONS hell yeah brother
Awesome video getting ready to use this project on my 77 bagged shorty van, can't wait to see how it comes out.
We love the guys at poppy's! we were just in Texas hanging out with them at LS Fest!
I love vans. I customize them for a living. I think that van super bad ass bagged with some fat meats on the back and a twin turbo 5.9 Cummins. Yah you could do a Duramax but a Cummins would be totally unexpected.
Plus we could have one of those raunchy stickers made that says something like "cummin inside the van!" lol
I had one on the back of my 72 E100 that said "don't laugh your daughter may be in here " lol
Holy moses a van AWSOME CONTENT AWSOME VAN 👌 GOD BLESS ALOHA BIG AL MANOA VALLEY
Mikey! Bagged diesel!
Love the patena!
Thanks for the support man! It seems like a lot of you want to see a diesel. We might just have to go that route!
2JZ Baby !!!
Yes, diesel that van. I have a 92 beauville patina van with a 6.5 n/a diesel and it gets shocked reactions all the time
Would love to see the van with a Duramax in it
Smoke some tires and roll some coal!
A custom vintage-style buttoned velvet interior with a killer stereo, airbrushed side murals and lower the front end a little to give it a nice stance. For the engine... V8 with sidepipes.
The exterior will stay how it is, but we definitely need that velvet interior!
A sleeper,quiet power 😎👍🇫🇷
The Briggs And Stratton on my push mower is pretty bad ass and never lets me down. Put a twin turbo on it and swap it into the van. LOL JK
get that 212cc predator motor in there!
Very cool, I like the flat or matte paint look, good old hot rod black or John Deere matte black, but always had that problem of moisture, but this stuff appears to be fully water resistant!
I have a glossy shine black HHR, and have been thinking about a matte black paint job, it appears I can follow the directions and enjoy the look I want.
Flat black, red factory steelie rims ! Thanks Mike!
It's super simple to use! Especially with the wipe on product!
You've got all the space in the world for batteries. Replace the entire bottom pan with batteries and make this an E-VAN.
That would be perfect!
4WD conversion. Deck it out for overlander camping!
We're thinking of going low with this one. Wouldn't make the best off road vehicle!
Should do a 4 Rotor conversion on the van. That would be incredibly different.
Thank you very much for this informative video !! Very cool product, keep GRINDIN’ !!
Thanks for watching! Glad you liked the video!
Such a great product! Love how it looks on my C10 🙌🏽🙌🏽
Great product from some great guys! If Oklahoma was closer we'd be hanging out more often!
Two suggestions... first is I'd love to see a Tesla Performance drive unit shoved in there...heaps of room for a pack too...but, I reckon a V8 Duramax and Allison would be a killer swap.
i vote to get a 7.3 Godzilla motor for the van to break the internet, and drive the purest crazy
That would be sick! We'd be smoking those tires alllll day!
The VanDiesel!!!...👍👍👍
Ok. That settles it. We're going diesel! lol
Considering this myself.
Twin turbo Chevy 4.3 maybe a cousin of the typhoon or syclone engine. Keep the GMC thought rolling
That would be a good power plant! We're thinking about going down the diesel route!
I think you should do a mid mounted big ass diesel motor in the GMC van with a roof scoop and side pipes.
Definitely need those side pipes!
Throw an RB26, VR38 from a R35 or even a Titan V8 in it and slap a turbo setup and lit it rip tater chip 😆👌🏽. Chris Forsberg used a Titan V8 for a couple years in his FD car a few years back and it ripped.
Thankyou for this, My Mazda's clearcoat is failing in the way that '00 era Mazda's are want to do, and I've been looking for something to protect what's left.
I'ma have to give ole Poppy a visit. I've got some Hot Rod Flatz matte black for my '68 Stang. They say it won't need to be cleared but I question that being out here in the Texas heat. . .
It's better safe than sorry!
Tim "Not the Toolman" Taylor
Since it’s a GMC I’d say put an injected 6.0 ls in it. No need for a turbo. That was a nice episode too!
But we need a turbo!!
4200 vortec inline. The ameribarra!!!
Great video guys!
Glad you enjoyed it!
That van is DOPE yo!
We're so excited to get this thing ripping!
Informative,engine from a new c8 that would be a first
All of those ideas were great, but how about a Duramax worked to the max done by Gale Banks from California. That would truely be Dope.
We love those guys from Banks! Definitely a possibility!
Badass turbo Cummins
Another nice one. Got a nice old orange early 60s chevy econoline looking van with side pipes and all on it a a shop near where I'm @ glad yall got nice weather. It's 💩 here right now Tim Taylor without the grunts n call for more power don't seem right lol.
Make it a camper van for traveling to shows and add lots of v8 goodness to it
2022 Tahoe Diesel engine swap the van... you guys will be the first of what will become a huge trend later
Oh hell yeah!
That van is cool, great to see these products developed for the patina finishes. Try hydrogen powered.
daaaaaaaaamn, check out the pimp ass 'Shag'n Wagon' ! Keep on Truck'n boizzzzzz \m/
It's gonna be the shop's new tire slayer!
Mean da patina. Mean HAWAIIAN ALOHA you bradas
Happy Wednesday Albert!!!
@@SalvagetoSavage a solid van? Ls swap with procharger. He'll yeah BRADAS
For drivetrain, something different but keeping it GM, how about GM Cyclone powered, 4.3 turbo !!!! Also Go old school Shaggin’ wagon vibe on that Vandura with the Side pipes, furry carpet.
A cyclone vandura would be sick!
Here's a crazy swap...Throw a vg30dett in there. :)
Another awesome video
Thank you!!
Dude that can is so bad ass. I think u guys should do a supercharged 400 sbc or 383. Not many ppl are making content on staying in the old school tech.
We're down as long as it's boosted!
Might have to pick up some of that wipe on coating for my Mazda 3 instead of having the roof repainted. Ngl I kinda like how it looks, but I'd like to stop the rusting before it gets too deep
Get that patina look goin on the Mazda! lol
Supercharged ls for sure
Throw a little Whipple in there?
@@SalvagetoSavage for sure let it rip
Man I would love to have this van with a 5.3 in it would b badd ass 😍 thanks for video
Thank's for watching!!
Gen III Hemi swap on 20" Halibrand Wheels !!!
Take the 454 from the chevelle, build it , supercharge it and put it in the van
Awd with a Cummins maybe ...or a Sleeper van
Great video 👍🏼👍🏼
Thank you!
Cummins diesel, 6.7 with a 6 - speed ALLISON. To top it off, 4-wheel drive, l mean if your serious! So like an independent 4X4❔hmm 🤔
Okay, got it, easy peasy, it's a G. M. SO A 6.6 D - Max L. 5P Duramax with a 10-speed ALLISON. Just swap bodies from a wrecked H.D 2019 G.M.C. YOU GOT YOUR DIESEL ENGINE, 10 - SPEED ALLISON and 4X4 LOW DOWN INDEPENDENT SUSPENSION. Done in like 👍a couple of weeks. I think I WILL LOOK INTO THAT❕😛
👌👍✌🏻🌧 🇨🇦 👨🦽 😎.
Diesel swap would be cool and unique. We had a Cummins swapped Cadillac show up at our local Cars & Coffee event and it was awesome.
With the hood that looks like a ripped open can of beans? I think we've seen that same one at a few shows down here! We absolutely love it!
"Cummins sap the van boys"....
A Mercedes Benz OM606 Swap would be awsome😬
That would be sick!
Put a Cummins in it!!! Never seen a van rolling coal!
That would be sick!
Cummins with dual stacks on the back.
Go old school but drop it. Feulie 327 with an M-22 Rockcrusher!
Looks great!!!
Thank you!!
Hey I know them oklahoma boys shout out to poppys patina
They're awesome! It sucks that OK isn't closer to FL so we could hang out with them more!
I'm only a couple hours from them, they are great people. You probably dont have time but If you check out my poppys video on my channel you will see what Brian did for me the first time we ever even spoke. It tells you what kind of company they have.
2j would be sick with some boost and it would fit nice
Do LS with electric motor. A hybrid dual motor at the back of the van. That should burn some rubber and get you scratching your heads a bit
EV in the front and LS in the rear? lol
Hay number 500 here keep them great videos coming 👍
Thanks for all the support!!
Gotta do some more to the van don’t see many ppl building these
We're going to make this a tire smoker for sure!
2 k24s... one up front and one out back, haha.
"I thought you said it was a V8"
"I said 8 cylinder. 4 in the front motor, 4 in the rear" lol
@@SalvagetoSavage Right!
hehe, rotary swap my guys
interesting video 😁 And for the new shop project 😅 2jz mid engine
Whatever we do, we'll definitely have to do a mid engine!
Ls swap 5.3🔥🔥🔥
I’ve been waiting for this video!!! 💪😤
Hoped the waiting paid off! Thanks for all the support Don!
12 valve cummins or a 4TB, the 4TB isnt a tire burner, but some torque and roll coal.
But we need to roast these tires!
Hook the van up with some good equipment and the inside custom like they did in the 70’s but with new materials and give it to one U.S. Veteran subscriber that’s will enjoy it to the fullest . SFC/ U.S. Army retired..😉
On the van coyote swap it in TwinTurbo it that’s gonna piss some people off🔥😃👍🏽🤙🏽
We love a good coyote swap!
Coyote swap it. That will raise hell with the Ford and Chevy people. I nice F150 coyote motor would do well in there if it will fit.
We love making people angry! lol
LS in the front. Tesla in the rear.
The mullet of the van world
Make the van a mid-engine diesel.
Get a chevy electric crate kit and put it in the vandura
Uuuuuh, van + burnouts? The Bedford from the Skid Factory comes to mind first. Al & Woody did stuff a Barra inside that thing but it was lots of fabrication. Vans generally don't have much space up front so a V6 or small V8 with turbos would be the maximum. A 3- or 4-rotor with turbo would be wild but then you'd have to ask Rob Dahm or the Vargas brothers for advice... 🤪😁😇
Space isn't an issue! Knock out that firewall and you got tons of space! lol
I've seen a Mk2 Transit with a Big Block 460...seen plenty of Bedfords with small block Chevs too.
Grinder and welder make a lot of things possible...
Whack a Dodge Viper V10 in it. Great channel. Love the eclectic variety of things that you do. Keep 'em comin'.
👍 from Perth, Western Australia.
that would be cool! and thank you we are def trying to get a got amount of different stuff for everyone.
TDI compound turbo setup
Nice patina🤙🏽
