BRIEF DESCRIPTION: The van was originally fire engine red, that being said it, back when it was almost new, it was painted white with red stripes, where it was used as the local school ambulance. It spent most of its life sitting around the high school and other local schools in Clifton Az, not getting a whole lot of miles put on it. In older school yr books for the area, you can see pics of it in the background of some of the old football games at the local high school in a small town outside Tucson called Clifton. It never had alot of miles put on it, but it was there at the football games etc back in the 70s. It was retired in the early 80s where it was parked for many yrs and not used hardly at all. Az still took its toll on the interior etc, but rust and rot on this vanare virtually non existent. About 6m ago it was saved from getting crushed and on its way to being put back on the road. Gas tank was cleaned out and fuel lines, a battery was put in it, new ignitionswitch and starter, fresh gas and it came back to life. It still needs work to be a daily driver but it does run and drive well enough to load onto a hauler etc. With new tires its almost ready to go. Wont be prettybut could be functional and on its way again to be a cool restored E series van that are hardly ever seen at car shows or on the road anymore.
DONT BID UNLESS YOU HAVE THE FUNDS IN HAND, apparently some people who use ebay arent smart enough to understand the rules. So if you have under 10 feedbacks, Ill be emailing you if you bid to make sure you are legit, if we do please reply or we will cancel your bid. Up for Auction: LOW FAIR RESERVE !!! These cars are getting harder to find esp in this condition that are still affordable to most buyers.
DRIVETRAIN: factory V8 van with a 3 on the tree. Motor runs and sounds good for not being tuned up or touched. Trans feels good too, clutch feels good, but does release a little high on the pedal. It may just need adjustment. Rearend is the stock 9" with stock gears. Best we can tell its the original C9 moto, 302 2v engine, which for its day was pretty decent. Starts with a turn of the key and has a pushbutton switch on the dash too.
INTERIOR: take a look at the pics, the interior of this car is pretty well worn out and probably the first thing you would want to repair. Fix the interior and take care of all the mechanics and drive it the way it is. At least there is no rust on the floors we can see and weve been all over and under this thing. The last owner added the fake grass a few months ago And under it the metal floor is in amazing shape. Middle seat is not bolted down. But the whole interior would prob be gutted and redone during the restoration. Maybe make it into a 70s Good Times Van or Camper ! Pop out side windows are cool. All the doors work properly, but a few handles are broken.
EXTERIOR:the body pretty straight for its age, but this is a 90% rust FREE AZ desert survivor. Windows roll up and down, doors work fine too.Rust or rot I should say is almost non existent on the body. Much niceer by comparison to a truck this old from the eastcoast. ORIGINALLY the car was ordered in Cherry Red, hence it being used as a Ambulance. Then the other paint was added etc for its use. Not sure who painted or when it was painted the bad white paint on top now. Grill is in pretty nice shape for its age too. All the lights seems to work properly too front and rear. SUSPENSION:the suspension looks normal from what I can see .. but old. We didnt hear any weird noises or clunks while driving it around. It Im sure will need some work soon like bushings etc, but as is its driving around ok. Its ready to drive as is or Lower the heck out of it !! Or wait, Ive seen some people turn these into 4x4s too !! Minimal rust under the car, making taking this car apart, almost a breeze !! Check out ALL the pics below ----->
it may take a full minute for them all to load ifyou have a slow connection, so be patient AND looks for the extra scroll bar on the right side. Az gets maybe 12" a yr of rain and Az very dry climate. more infoAFTER the pics etc. There are 100 large pics.
There you have it, probably The BEST represented Vans on Ebay. Shows you all the good as well as any bad, hope you appreciate them. We put a lot of time and effort in marketing our cars and it shows. People wait months for a car this solid to come up for sale and even if you have to pay shipping to your area, it still beats paying a body shop to hopefully fix a rusty car for weeks on end. Having as much as the original steel on a restored car these days speaks volumes. Also, if you buy a car thats been "restored", who knows what sort of surprises are hidden under new paint or thick undercoating. People are flipping cars all the time when most of the jobs are fast, for a quick buck and quality suffers.
Email us with ANY questions before you bid please Our Impeccable FEEDBACK speaks for itself. We show you as much feasibly possible via pics. Dont let auctions withlittle to no pics try to fool you. If they cant take the time to take pics of areas under the car they are selling, maybe its not the best car to buy long distance.
