1966 Ford Econoline Travelwagon project.  Would make a great parts hauler, shop truck, motorcycle carrier or summer beach van.  This is one of the few projects that I have, I just don't have the time to fix up or restore.  Needs a good home.  I purchased this van 7 years ago from New Mexico where it spent its whole life in the desert.  Very solid body, very little rust.  The only rust is the lower drivers side panel (I included the link for the replacement panel below), inside by the gas filler tube, rear door post (at the very bottom) and has pin holes on the front floor (in front of the motor).  The bed is very solid (the brown color in the pictures is old glue from a carpet) and the chassis is very solid (no rust through anywhere).  I never tried to get it running, I'm not sure of the condition of the motor and transmission.  I have the carburetor for the van.  It will need a good going over (brakes, brake lines, gas tank cleaned, etc.).  The windshield is cracked and I do not have the keys.

I am in the process of obtaining the transferable registration (New York State did not issue title for vehicles older that 1973).  I should have it by the end of the auction so for now there is no title.  I will update the auction once I get it.  

Payment terms are cash or paypal, no money orders or checks.  Please email with any questions.

Subcompact sales slump, yet again

2015 Ford F-150 named Truck of Texas, Lincoln and Jeep also awarded at Truck Rodeo

Tue, 14 Oct 2014

The Ford Motor Company has a lot of reasons to celebrate after winning eight categories in this year's Texas Auto Writers Association's annual Truck Rodeo. Most important among them, the Blue Oval's latest 2015 Ford F-150 earned the prestigious Truck of Texas award, ending the Ram 1500's two-year winning streak. The 2015 Lincoln MKC also grabbed the honor as the CUV of Texas, and Ford was named Truck Line of Texas.
FoMoCo even took trophies for best technology with its extensive use of aluminum on its latest F-Series and best commercial vehicle for the new Transit 250. It wasn't a total sweep, though, because the Jeep Grand Cherokee grabbed the title of the SUV of Texas for the fifth straight time.
This year's event put 60 auto writers in 75 pickups, SUVs and crossovers and challenged them to find the best in a plethora of categories. All of the winners are listed below, and scroll down to read the full announcements from the Texas Auto Writers Association and Ford.

Ford to announce Mulally retirement, Fields CEO as early as May 1

Mon, 21 Apr 2014

Ford CEO Alan Mulally may be about to announce his long-rumored retirement from the Blue Oval, according to a pair of insiders who spoke to Bloomberg. An official statement on the succession could arrive as soon as May 1. Chief Operating Officer Mark Fields is rumored to step up as the new CEO. The company is said to be readying the announcement soon to ensure an orderly transition of power, according to the insiders.
Mulally's retirement from Ford has been a hot topic for a while. He was seriously rumored last year to be leaving the automaker to take over as the CEO of Microsoft. The board even said at one point that it was okay with them if he stepped down early. However, the CEO maintained he would stay with the business through at least the end of 2014. Fields has been rumored as a frontrunner to take over the top spot at the company since he was promoted to COO.
For the moment, Ford isn't officially confirming any of these plans. "We don't comment on speculation. We do have succession plans in place for our key leadership. We take succession planning very seriously," said Susan Krusel, Ford Global News Manager, to Autoblog.
