1974 Ford Econoline E-100 in original, unrestored condition. Factory 302 V8, Automatic Trans, factory Power Steering, factory A/C. This E100 is in running and driving condition but it has spent more time sitting than driving since the 1990s. Odometer reads 27000. I believe that 127000 is correct but I have no written proof supporting that. The engine starts up easy and runs well although the alternator light flickers when idling. The power steering system works but does leaks a small puddle after its parked. It may be leaking while driving as well. The leak appears to be from one of the power steering hoses but the leak could be coming from elsewhere. The factory a/c system is complete up to the discharge vent on the bulkhead behind the driver seat and seems to just barely blow cold. The non-power brakes work well and the drums have very little miles on them. The previous owner stated the transmission and brakes were rebuilt less than 500 miles ago but I have no written proof of that. The trans case looks clean as if it were rebuilt recently and it does shifts well. It has a very nicely made dual exhaust system that sounds good. Tires hold air and have tread but are older and should be replaced before regular use. All instruments work except for the gas gauge which was working when I bought it. Most of the lights, heater, wipers all work. Ignition and all exterior locks work with the same key. The windshield has a significant crack in it and will need to be replaced. This van will need a thorough examination of all systems before it should be used as everyday driver. That being said I recommend that the van should be trailered or shipped.

The body is fairly straight for a 40 year old van but it does have minor dents, scratches and some very light surface rust. Paint is older but not original. It has some body damage around the right rear tail light area. This van was converted into a camper in 1970s by the original owner. For sanitary reasons I have removed all of the old paneling, carpet and insulation and high pressure washed the interior. Due to being a camper it does have many small holes on the inside framing of the van from screws used to attach the paneling and some light adhesive residue from the insulation material behind the paneling. It also had a vent in the roof at one point which has been removed. A patch was made using the roof of another van and it was welded in place. It could use more finish grinding on the welded bead to be flush and some professional hammer and dolly work to be perfect but since it is not visible from the ground it has not been done. It was painted with a closely matching color on the outside and black body sealer inside.

Despite the description above this van would make an excellent candidate for a full or partial restoration. It is uncommon to find one these 2nd generation panel vans in a condition that is similar to how they came from the factory i.e. not cut up, customized or driven into the ground. It has a very desirable option package not normally found in an E100s that makes driving it more hospitable. I bought this van to restore at a later time but I have come across another project I am more interested in so I am selling a few of my vehicles.

This van is being sold as is, where is with no warranty written, expressed or implied. It is the buyers responsibility to perform all due diligence before bidding. It has a clear Oregon title in my name.

I will not accept Paypal for payment. I will accept cash in hand at pickup or a cashiers check from a certified bank mailed in advance to allow time for funds to clear. Funds must clear before the van leaves my possession. I will willing to hold the van for up to a month after the auction has closed if that will help you. Once again, NO PAYPAL!

The van is also for sale locally and I reserve the right to end the auction at anytime. Please contact me via ebay if you have any questions or would pictures of something specific.

2015 F-150 launch to curb Ford profits?

Thu, 30 Jan 2014

Ford is making a big bet on aluminum with its new 2015 F-150, and it's possible that the decision will hurt the company financially, at least in the short term. After earning a record $8.6 billion in 2013, the Blue Oval does not expect to set another record in 2014. According to Automotive News, that's "largely attributable to F Series," says Bob Shanks, Ford's Chief Financial Officer.
To retool for the new F-150, Ford will idle its Dearborn Truck Plant in Michigan for 11 weeks and the Ford Kansas City Assembly Plant in Missouri for 2 weeks. "3 of the 13 overall weeks occur during what normally is our summer shutdown timeframe," said Mike Levine, Ford Trucks Communication Manager, in an email to Autoblog. The extra 10 weeks will be preparing for the more aluminum-intensive construction for the trucks and will mean over 2 months of no F-150s being made. For comparison's sake, Chrysler boss Sergio Marchionne just confirmed that the 200 plant in Sterling Heights, MI will be down for 30 days to retool for the new model, but obviously there are many more F-150 production variables than for the midsize sedan.
Levine notes that Ford is already running three shifts at both plants, and says the automaker has plans to ensure that there is adequate supply of the full-size pickups during the retooling process. The company does not want to suffer a shortage of the vehicle that accounted for 31-percent of its 2013 US sales and an even bigger percentage of its profits.

Ford Mustang, F-150, Expedition, and Lincoln Navigator recalled

Wed, Apr 27 2016

The Basics: Ford will recall 201,900 examples of the 2011-2012 F-150, 2012 Expedition, 2012 Mustang, and 2012 Lincoln Navigator. The affected vehicles have the 6R80 transmission. Of the total, there are 84,000 of them in the United States and 17,900 in Canada. The Problem: The output speed sensor on the vehicle's transmission lead frame can force the gearbox to downshift into first gear. If this happens at high speed, it could cause the rear tires to slide or lock up. Injuries/Deaths: There are no reported injuries, but Ford know of three accidents related to this problem. The Fix: Dealers will update the powertrain control module software to eliminate the problem, and they'll also replace the transmission lead frame. If You Own One: Ford will begin notifying affected customers by mail on May 23.

Details are as follows: Ford issues safety recall and customer satisfaction program for certain 2011-2012 Ford F-150, and 2012 Ford Expedition, Ford Mustang and Lincoln Navigator vehicles in North America to update powertrain control module software and inspect for certain diagnostic trouble codes Ford is issuing a safety recall for approximately 202,000 2011-2012 Ford F-150, and 2012 Ford Expedition, Ford Mustang and Lincoln Navigator vehicles for a potential issue with the output speed sensor on the vehicle's transmission lead frame. Under certain conditions, the transmission controls could force a temporary downshift into first gear. Depending on the speed of the vehicle at the time of the downshift, the driver could experience an abrupt speed reduction that could cause the rear tires to slide or lock up. This condition could result in loss of vehicle control, increasing the risk of a crash. Ford is aware of three reports of accidents and no injuries related to this condition. Affected vehicles are equipped with a 6R80 transmission and include certain 2011-2012 Ford F-150 vehicles built at Dearborn Truck Plant and Kansas City Assembly Plant, Aug. 19, 2011 through March 9, 2012; 2012 Ford Expedition vehicles built at Kentucky Truck Plant, Aug. 19, 2011 through Dec. 19, 2011; Ford Mustang vehicles built at Flat Rock Assembly Plant, Aug. 19, 2011 through Feb.
