Well, I don't know anything about the event...and really you probably can't
see much of the ground clearance on that white van in the picture...but I DO
remember seeing a quigley conversion on the road once...it had MASSIVE
ground clearance...

Probably since they are all custom, this one could have had a much lower
stance, smaller wheels and tires, etc...

I would have been VERY surprised to see the quigley ford van I saw schtuck,
well other than high centered ;-)
