A compact van is a type of van popular in the United States during the early 1960s. They were characterized by mechanicals based on a compact car, size roughly the same as the VW Bus, and an engine placed either at the rear or between and behind the front seats. These models were replaced by full-size car vans at the end of the 1960s, which used body-on-frame construction and featured front engines under a short hood.
