We’ve seen plenty of LSx-swapped vehicles but this 1960 Mercedes O 319 minibus listed on Bring a Trailer is a first. The listing states the unique vehicle was built by M&M Specialties in Napa, California. Under the engine cover between the front seats sits a 6.2 L LS3 V8. The listing states the drivetrain uses a 4L80E four-speed automatic transmission and narrowed 12-bolt rear end with 3.08 ratio. The minibus rides on an independent front suspension with power steering rack and leaf-spring rear suspension. The exterior is covered in black and green paint with custom wheels wearing Bridgestone Potenza RE050 tires (255/40, 345/35).
