What we have here is a 1967 Ford Econoline window van. Some body wanted a V8 ! And they went BIG! Its a 1971 351W with a aluminum 4V intake with a new Edelbrock carb. The installation of the engine and trans was done correct. Nice job to the builder. It has custom side panels a modified rear extension. The panels just give enough room for the engine to fit tightly in place. The rear extension was installed by my son. It was put in for more air flow when the vehicle was stopped . Plus we installed a new fuel mechanical pump. We also added a fan shroud and cleaned the radiator. A electric fan was installed to the front of the radiator. It does have a mechanical temp and oil gauges. It has a tach that does not work and it will be removed. It has headers and glass pack mufflers. The brakes are good for manual brakes. Manual steering. Tires are in great shape with newer Ford Ranger 15'' wheels. The suspension is in good shape. The front is low and could use add-a-leafs, to level the van. This thing is cool to drive and everyone is all over it. The two front seats have been reupholstered. Someone remove the lower interior panels. The window panels are all ther, and the lower and upright brackets are there also. Some of the roof panels are still in place. The extra bench seats came out of a newer Ford van. The body a very little surface rust. It does have dents as you can see in the pictures.It does have dual fuel tanks with a switch and fuel filters. We unhooked the second tank. It is large. The rear tank was repaired and reinstalled removing the class 3 hitch . I have the hitch. And a brake controller. And it does need a windshield and gasket. I really like this van and I do not want to sell, but I have to many projects. There is so much info! We have been clean the floor pan of glue and grease. The last owner did not have the energy to clean it correctly. If you have questions . Call me at 815-671-0911 . Thank you! Ron
