Vehicle Description
There's just something always cool about a forward-control van, and
this 1967 Ford Econoline shows it off nicely. It's a blank slate
with a ton of potential and a few nice upgrades already in
place.
This has the clean lines of a cool/classic panel van. And
outlaw-style wheels with spinners give this a touch of sportiness.
Plus, it really has a ready-to-work attitude with the side towing
mirrors and trailer hitch receiver integrated into the rear bumper.
The Harbor Blue paint is the factory-correct color, and it has been
resprayed later in life to be quite complete and utilitarian. It
sets up the right feeling for this van because the overall
impression you'll get is a classic that has possibilities. It can
be restored to be everything from a cool Scooby-Doo Mystery Machine
to a useful tool for your business that has a vintage distinction
that stands out.
These forward control vans offer individual seats up front, and
that has been upgraded with contoured cloth buckets supplied by a
Fox-body Mustang. The setup on these is ideal where the driver gets
a commanding view of the road and a well-balanced mid-engine
layout. The long flat floor is great for everything from carrying
cargo to becoming a build for your home away from home.
Ford's sturdy 240 cubic-inch inline-six is mounted in-between the
seats for a nice weight balance. It has a true look of honesty,
just like the rest of this van, but it also has the right signs of
maintenance - including possibly a new carburetor. It fires up
readily and shifts smoothly on the column-shifted three-speed
manual transmission. This package feels quite good going down the
road, and the upgraded wheels allow for a newer set of wider modern
tires.
True vintage style and permanent utility make for a distinct van
that's ready for your next chapter. Call today!!!
