The Triad Fish Van (also known as the Belly ) is the gang version of the Mule featured in Grand Theft Auto III , Grand Theft Auto Advance and Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories .
The Triad Fish Van (also known as the Belly) is the gang version of the Mule featured in GTA III, and GTA: Liberty City Stories. It is the gang car of the Triads in GTA III and GTA Liberty City Stories.
Being a variant of the Mule, the Triad Fish Van is essentially a box truck distinguishable only by its Belly-Up Fish & Seafood Processing Plant name visible on the sides and front of the cargo compartment of the truck (which, coincidentally, gives the internal name of the vehicle, BELLYUP). The Fish Vans also earn the distinction as the earliest gang cars to appear with multiple body colors, when other gangs cars in Grand Theft Auto III were only using single color schemes, making it the only gang car that has multiple colors in GTA III. In Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories, although the front fascia of the Mule was updated, the Triad Fish Van remained completely identical to its GTA III version.
The Grand Theft Auto Advance rendition of the vehicle, known as the "Belly", received substantial changes, modifying its role and design.
In comparison to the similarly designed Wong, the Belly in GTA Advance is slightly smaller in size. The truck is also driven by civilians instead of the Triads, as the Wong effectively takes over the role as the Triads' gang car. The Belly always spawns in yellow, unlike the Wong, which has multiple colors.
