The A100 (or '''Forward Control''') line was a family of small vans and Truck s produced by Chrysler and sold under the Dodge Marque in the 1960s , competing with the Ford Econoline , and Chevy Van , all inspired by the Volkswagen Bus . It included a Pickup Truck and Van , both with a "cab forward" design unusual in Passenger Vehicle s. The nose was flat, with the engine was placed between the driver and passenger, who sat on top of the front axle. These Unibody vehicles used a short 90 in wheelbase. An A108 was also available with a 108 in wheelbase and was very popular with camper conversion companies. This body was replaced by the front-engined short and long-nosed Dodge Sportsman vans which were inspired by the Ford Econoline moving its engine forward of the driver. One famous modified example was the "Little Red Wagon" which showed off wheelie starts at drag strips in the 1960s. Engines:
