Lifted trucks and SUVs are insanely awesome. You can drive them just about anywhere and you can even race them in snow or sand. But you know what's better than a lifted truck or SUV? A lifted van! If it's a GMC from the 1980s, like the one recently showcased by Yasid Design, it's even better.

If you're not familiar with the GMC Vandura, it's a full-size van that General Motors produced from 1971 until 1995. It was part of the third-generation Chevrolet G-series van that GM first introduced in 1964 and discontinued in 1995, when it was replaced by the Chevrolet Express.

The GMC Vandura became famous beyond a simple utility vehicle in 1983, when a customized version was featured in "The A-Team," an action TV series about former special forces members that worked as soldiers of fortune while trying to clear their name for a crime they didn't commit. A 1983 model year version, the A-Team van featured a two-tone, grey-over-black paint job with red stripes and red wheels.

The van seen here is also a 1983-model-year version, but it's completely different. For starters, it rides on big and wide off-road wheels and on a suspension lift that provides massive ground clearance.

It's fitted with a bullbar and flood lights on the roof. It also features a winch and tow hooks. It's the kind of van that will make you forget about the Jeep Wrangler on any Moab trail.
