Vehicle Description
This 1997 Ford E150 "Mutts Cutts" Van is an absolute
attention-getting, showstopping replica that is sure to wow
everyone that sees it! From Batman's Batmobile and Bullitt's '68
Mustang to the 1958 Plymouth named "Christine" and Rain Man's '49
Buick Roadmaster, countless vehicles have played starring and
supporting roles on the Silver Screen. Even lighter-hearted and
comedic movies feature iconic cars such as the DeLorean Time
Machine in Back to the Future, the '59 Cadillac Ambulance in
Ghostbusters, and even Austin Powers' Union Jack emblazoned
"Shaguar." For a certain generation of movie-goers, the Mutts Cutts
Van from the movie Dumb and Dumber is unforgettable and has
cemented itself amongst the most iconic Movie cars of all time.
Starring Jim Carrey as Lloyd Christmas and Jeff Daniels as Harry
Dunne, Dumb and Dumber chronicles the nitwitted pair's
cross-country trip from Rhode Island to Aspen, Colorado. Lloyd, a
limo driver, discovered that his passenger (and love interest)
forgot her briefcase inside Lloyd's limousine on the way to the
airport, and to win her affection, Lloyd is determined to return
her briefcase. Harry, a recently fired dog groomer, used the Mutts
Cutts van for his dog grooming job; that is, until he gets fired.
So, Lloyd and Harry take Harry's Mutts Cutts Van and embark on a
roadtrip consisting of buffoonery, debauchery, and shenanigans all
with the intended goal to make it to Aspen to return the briefcase.
The Mutts Cutts Van plays a starring role in the Dumb and Dumber
movie, alongside Carrey and Daniels, and its looks alone add to the
already humorous nature of the plot. This particular Ford Van has
been retrofitted to resemble the iconic Dumb and Dumber Mutts Cutts
Van and it is sure to garner lots of attention wherever it is.
Powering the Mutts Cutts mobile is a 5.4 Liter V8 engine, equipped
with electronic fuel injection. The 5.4L V8 is backed by an
automatic transmission that makes this eye-catching Dumb and Dumber
replica an easy car for anybody to drive. Since this Mutts Cutts
Van was built using a later-model Ford van, it comes loaded with
fantastic driver-friendly equipment. Power steering makes squeezing
in and out of a tight space at the local car show or ice cream shop
almost effortless, and turning can be accomplished one-handed. With
power front disc brakes, bringing this beast to a complete stop is
also a simple proposition which is especially important given its
size. The ride is quite smooth cruising on a set of radial tires
mounted on painted steel wheels while retaining its resemblance to
the movie used van. The customized dog-shaped body has been almost
entirely covered in weather-resistant faux dog hair that not only
gives this Mutts Cutts van its iconic look, but also makes it more
practical to bring to charity events or even the local car show.
The interior of this Ford Mutts Cutts Van is quite comfortable with
big captain chair bucket seats for the driver and their passenger.
The door panels, dash, and steering wheel all remain in the stock
configuration of the 1997 Ford E150 upon which this Mutts Cutts
Mobile is built. You'll be able to stay cool even on the hottest
summer days since this van is equipped with air conditioning. The
Mutts Cutts Van has also been equipped with a backup camera to
further aid in maneuvering this beast in and out of parking spaces.
Instrumentation includes a 100 MPH speedometer, temperature gauge,
oil pressure gauge, amp gauge, and fuel gauge. You'll also be able
to listen to all of your tunes on the AM/FM/Cassette stereo system
while you're cruising down the road in high style! Whether you're
adding to your existing collection of show stopping vehicles, or
you're buying your very first show car, this 1997 Ford E150 Mutts
Cutts Replica would make an excellent choice. Give Ellingson's a
