Then again I am a hypocrite because it was 100% original both mechanical and body but I put a 5 speed overdrive gearbox in (just bolt in, no cutting) which gave me 120kmh at the same revs the original did 90kmh
The Dodge sedan had a higher ratio diff so could handle 100kmh without stress.

Personally I have no problems with making
reversible alterations to make a vehicle safer or more "streetable", especially if that means the vehicle can be used more.
Last saw that panel van of yours back in Northern France in 2019:
