With all this discussion about "cab forward" and how Chrysler is using 
"revisionist history" to portray its "inventions"....one must remember that 
the original "cab forward" design (as Chrysler puts it...moving the front 
wheels forward and the rear wheels further back) did not originate with the 
Vanagon either....but with the tried and true Morris/Austin Mini back in 
1959!
