  • The A100 (or Forward Control) line was a family of American compact vans and trucks produced by Chrysler Corporation for the Dodge and Fargo brands from 1964–1970, competing with the Ford Econoline and Chevy Van, all inspired by the Volkswagen Type 2. It included a pickup truck and van, both with a "cab forward" design unusual in passenger vehicles. The nose was flat, with the engine placed between the driver and passenger, who sat above the front axle. These unibody vehicles used a short, in (mm) wheelbase. An A108 was also available from 1967–1970, with a longer in (mm) wheelbase. The A108 was very popular with camper conversion companies.

A substantially modified, Hemi-powered A100 wheelstanding exhibition pickup called the "Little Red Wagon" driven by Bill "Maverick" Golden was a popular drag strip attraction in the 1960s through the early 2000s.
