The Dodge Ram Van, officially the B-Series, was a range of full-sized vans produced for the Dodge division of the Chrysler Corporation (later DaimlerChrysler) from 1971 to 2003. Despite being sold over three generations, the overall platform and most of the exterior sheetmetal remained unchanged over 32 years of production. The Ram Van was offered with numerous engines, from the 225 ci (3.7L) slant-6 to the 360 ci (5.9L) Magnum V8.
This casting is based on the third and final generation of the Dodge Ram Van. Even though these vans were never officially sold in Japan, many were imported and a cult following developed there, even spawning a racing scene. They are nicknamed Dajiban (Japanese: ダッジバン Dajjiban), the Japanese phonetic pronunciation of "Dodge van". Many are fitted with the 5.2L Magnum V8.
