1979 Dodge / Plymouth Wrangler B200 AWD Vans

Champion Home Builders’ 4WD Wrangler vans were not built in great numbers and were based exclusively on Dodge and Plymouth vans. Champion manufactured a line of motorhomes at the time, including the Trans-Van, which could be optioned with the same four-wheel-drive system. The brochures from 1978 and 1979 claimed the Wrangler vans were “built to handle rough terrain and steep hills, and to get you through sand, mud, and snow.” The vans were offered with either a 318-cubic-inch V-8 or a 360 V-8 in B100, B200, or B300 Tradesman vans. These vans came with plenty of options to fortify them for off-road use, including slotted wheels, big all-terrain tires, winches, “skip plates,” and even side pipes. These vans are very rare, so finding an original one in good condition is unusual.
