That is certainly the big question. There are some caveats.
1. I own the old van and the body and front interior is in good shape
(small dents but no rust, etc.).
2. Modern cars have complicated computers to integrate with - see
-Phil-'s email about conversions.
3. It's not easy to find something with enough ground clearance and no
between-seat console.
An older vehicle that you really like and is in good shape is a good
candidate for a conversion. That's especially true if your performance
requirements aren't too stringent.
I have looked and may look some more. I may just wait for a production
vehicle that will do what I need.
You (and I) may be waiting a long time. The carmakers mainly build the
vehicles their dealers want to *sell* -- not what customers want. They
depend on advertising to tell people what they want.
