The report presents the results of Tests 3052-1 through 3052-6, symmetric head-on Van-to-NHTSA Fixed Test Device crash tests. Two different model vans were crashed at test speeds of 15, 25, and 30 mph. Tests 3052-1 thrugh 3052-3 were conducted using 1979 Ford E-150 Econoline Vans while Tests 3052-4 through 3052-6 were conducted using 1979 Dodge B-200 Vans. The objective of these tests was to study the aggressivity of vans, to provide baseline test data to support extension of FMVSS No. 208 to vans, and to provide initial information for the future FMVSS 400 series standards upgrading. The report contains all Calcomp plots of vehicle and NHTSA Test Device electronic data gathered for each test.
