1973 Ford Econoline E-100 Van Supervan

Resto/Custom about 3 years ago.  Completely stripped, primed, and repainted. Nice two-tone metallic silver/grey paintwork with custom flames outlined in metallic orange.  Bodywork on interior pocket bottoms of doors done in fiber glass.  Patch panels (original from the 70's, so you know they were quality, thick panels) on Driver and Passenger door. 

Replaced Sliding door with a spare that had no windows to truly give it that cargo look.  Barn doors in the back.

Complete interior floor was sprayed with bedliner.  Walls were insulated, (styrofoam type) and covered with masonite throughout.  Made a half wall of the same on the driver side just in front of the rear wheel well; which houses the speakers.  All walls and ceiling were painted black, with the intent to cover with Diamond tuck vinyl at a later date.  Never got to it.  This means theres still room for customization on your part.

NOS Ford Truck Bench seat from the early 80's was placed along the driver side wall.   Blue in color.  No other seating in the rear.

Leather bucket seats up front from a toyota Scion.  They look great and are very comfortable.

NEW crate 302 motor built to stock specs, attahced to a rebuilt AOD 4 speed transmission.  This combination works and performs great.  Can cruise at 70 mph all day long.  NEW aluminum radiator keeps her cool.

Offset tires to give it a little bit of a hotrod feel.  Manual Air shocks in the rear to assist withthe ride while hauling bikes etc.

Pictures truly reflect condition.  The pic with the bubbles, I believe these to be bubbles in the paint and not rust.  I tried collapsing them and couldnt.

Feel free to contact me with questions: (618) 303-6007

Watch this Ford F-150 SVT Raptor fly like an eagle [UPDATE]

Mon, 04 Feb 2013

The Ford F-150 SVT Raptor is a very capable truck right out of the box, but "capable" has never translated into "invincible." Just ask the owner of the machine in this video. In it, the driver gets frisky with an aggressive jump with plenty of speed on his hands. The result is enough air to make Vaughn Gittin Jr. blush. As always, it's not the launch that's painful, but the re-entry. Gravity eventually asserts its dominance over the $43,630 pickup in a big way, and when it comes crashing down, it does so with a vengeance.
The impact was hard enough to set off both the alarm and multiple airbags inside the cabin. It's unclear if anyone was injured in the stunt, but we certainly wouldn't be surprised to hear that was the case. You can check out the stunt in the video below, and remember, when in doubt, back out of the throttle. Be warned, there may be some explicit/NSFW language in the clip.
UPDATE: Second video added with an even better look at the jump added below.

Ford family keeps special voting rights

Fri, 10 May 2013

Ford Motor Company has a dual-class stock structure of Class A and Class B shares. The roughly three billion Class A shares are for the general public like you and me, while the roughly 71 million Class B shares are all owned by the Ford family. Each Class A share gets the shareholder one vote, each Class B share is worth 16 votes, the result being that Common Stock holders control about 60 percent of the company while the Ford family controls 40 percent even though it holds far fewer shares. The only way that could ever change would be if the Fords sell their Class B shares, but even so, Class B shares revert to Class A when sold outside the family, so they'd have to sell a whole bunch of them.
A contingent of Class A shareholders think the dual-class system is unfair, and for the past few years a vote's been held during the annual shareholders meeting to end it. It has failed every time, as it just did again during the meeting held this week. A smidge over 33 percent voted to end the dual system, outvoted by the 67 percent who are happy with the way Ford is going - unsurprising in view of a corporate turnaround that will be part of business-class curricula for years to come.
On the sidelines, Ford elected Ellen R. Marram to the post of independent director, the first woman to hold the job. The former Tropicana CEO and 20-year Ford board member replaces retiring board member Irvine Hockaday who helped bring Alan Mulally to the CEO position.

Ford GT to be revived, Le Mans battle upcoming

Sun, 05 Oct 2014

Ford dominated the 24 Hours of Le Mans from 1966 to 1969, scoring four consecutive wins. Wouldn't it be great if the Blue Oval could go back to France for the 50th anniversary of that performance and show it can still compete in international endurance racing? Actually, the latest rumors indicate that could be exactly the case, and the car taking that checkered flag could be another revival of the Ford GT.
As the rumblings go, Ford wants to use a new supercar to take another crack at Le Mans, after considering some other possible alternatives. Substantiating these musings are reports that a Blue Oval rep was reportedly on hand for a recent meeting about 2016 GTE-Class rules, according to Road and Track. That would put the new GT in the same racing class as the Corvette, Ferrari 458 Italia, Porsche 911 and others.
It's not all about racing, though. If you win on Sunday, you want something to be able to sell on Monday. The revived GT is reportedly still a mid-engine supercar, but the exact engine is unclear. It's possible that it could even be shown or announced at the Detroit auto show in January, according to Motor Trend.
