Over the course of many long nights full of takeout cod with chips and many, many Red Bulls, the BB Motorsport team meticulously modified the body of a ’70s-vintage Italian mini-SUV called the Willam Fourgonnette and sold mostly in France. Over this, a custom body kit was made to replicate Postman Pat’s iconic Royal Mail delivery van. With hand-fabricated flared wheel arches, a modified floor pan, and most of its firewall ablated away and re-welded, the end result looks like a Nissan Cube and a Grumman LLV had a drunken fling and painted a vibrant red color. In short, it was the spitting image of Postman Pat’s cherished van.

For such a special and unique build, you need an equally special engine. Some low-end automotive-grade three-or four-cylinder units from a Honda or Toyota of some sort would’ve been perfectly fine for most. But because tiny cars and superbike engines go together like the ocean and sea salt with the right set of hands and tools behind it. That’s why a 400-horsepower turbocharged four-cylinder Suzuki Hayabusa engine is the perfect powerplant for a van as ridiculous as this one.

With all the fabrication work that went into building the body for Postman Pat’s delivery van, installing the superbike engine on custom motor mounts was a true work of modern craftsmanship. With a six-speed sequential racing transmission behind it and linked through a custom driveshaft to an elite racing differential, there’s plenty of hardware under the skin to make for an insane performance experience to match the one-of-a-kind looks. Did we mention that BB Motorsport built this for a paying customer? It means you could potentially have one as well with deep enough pockets.
