1988 Ford Econoline E150 Club Wagon.

This 1988 Ford Club Wagon was aquired around 6 years ago.  When I received (Big Blue) she had a nasty exhaust leak coming from the smog pump injectors.  I had the injectors removed and the openings brazed shut, the smog pump was removed, the insides of the pump were removed, the pump housing was remounted and now acts as an idler pulley.

This is my 2nd Ford Van with the inline six cylinder motor.  These motors are bullet proof.  My first Ford Van was a 1993 cargo van.  I purchased it with 185,000 miles on it,  I drove it daily to 350,000 miles and sold it in still good running condition.  The reason I sold the 1993 was because the 1988 Ford Van that I am now selling was ready to become my new daily driver.

I put a rear locking differential on this van because I drive some pretty serious hills in the winter.  I mounted studded tires in the rear and she claws her way thru the snow like nobody's business.  The van originally came from Maryland, she had very little rust when I got her, she spent the next 5 years in a covered garage just sitting, waiting to be put into the lineup.  The first winter she saw with salt was this past winter, I had the undercarriage sprayed using Carwell in Buffalo.  Carwell is a GREAT product, they spray all the local school busses, FedEx & UPS trucks, they also spray military vehicles to protect them from rusting.

I drove this van to Idaho and back last summer 2012.  She never missed a beat until the return trip in Indiana.  I had to replace the fuel pump on the frame rail.  I replaced it and the fuel filter and she was back on the road in no time.  She purrs like a kitten every day, never misses a start, one quick turn of the key and she is ready to roll.

This van is a great daily driving van, the only reason I am selling it is because I bought another Ford Van.

I equipped "Big Blue" with Bilstein Shock absorbers at all four corners, Bilstein shocks for these vans cost $100.00 per shock, they are worth it, they provide a very predictable, comfortable, safe ride.  I also installed a K&N rechargeable air filter.

I am selling this van with all the tires and rims I have for it.  You'll get 4 Mastercraft Courser A/T 235/75/15 tires, 2 MasterCraft Courser A/T 205/75/15 Studded Tires, 1 Michelin LTX 235/75/15 Tire.  5 stock Ford steel rims 15"X6.5", 2 black wagon wheel rims 15"X6.5", 2 black wagon wheel rims 15"X8".  I run the black wagon wheels in the summer with 4 Kumho Road Venture 235/75/15 tires.  That is a total of 11 tires with 9 rims... plus 5 genuine Ford Econoline series hub caps.

This van has two high back captains chairs with armrest's up front, there are 2 bench seats in back, I am also including 2 low back bucket seats which were originally up front.

This van makes a great camping vehicle as I used it on my trip out west last summer, it also is a great work van when you remove the bench seats.  This is truly a Multi Purpose Vehicle.

Gas mileage is 15MPG  in the city 17-18MPG on the highway.  She'll cruise all day long at 65-70 mph, uphills she'll get down to 55mph, steep uphills 45 mph, downhills 75-80 mph, I don't push her harder than that.

I use full synthetic motor oil 5w-30 wt. Penzoil Ultra with a K&N filter.  I also have a FilterMag attached to the oil filter for added protection.  I have put alot of expense into getting this van road worthy, it was a labor of love that somebody else can now enjoy.

I installed a new JVC KDX40 head unit last summer along with 4 new Polk Audio speakers, the system sounds great!

These motors run forever, the transmission had a shift kit installed before I got the van, all shifts are firm and authoritive, no slip, no slop.

I had new front springs installed last fall, the old ones were sagging a bit, these really tightened the front end up nicely, if I was keeping the van I would have the camber adjusted, it's a bit positive with the new springs.

I installed all new brakes and replaced some worn brake lines last summer, I also repacked the wheel bearings at that time.

The van burns no oil, drips no fluids.   

She's not a barn burner, however, she'll get you there safely and in comfort.

Any questions feel free to call me, this van is for sale locally, so bidding can end at any time.

Use the "buy it now" button before someone else does and get her home!

Ford, Renault have surprises in store for Le Mans

Tue, Jun 9 2015

All those prototype and GT racers won't be the only attraction catching our eye at the 24 Hours of Le Mans this weekend. Two major automakers have also confirmed that they've got new metal to unveil. And while they're not saying exactly what they'll be, we've got some pretty good ideas. First up is Ford, which has announced a "major Ford Performance news announcement" on Friday. Chairman Bill Ford, CEO Mark Fields, and product development chief Raj Nair will be on hand for the announcement set to take place on Friday at 10:00 AM Eastern. The Blue Oval isn't saying just what it has in store, but the widespread speculation has been that it will present a racing version of the new Ford GT at Le Mans a good half century since the original GT40 raced there. Meanwhile, Renault has announced that it is marking the 60th anniversary of the Alpine marque at Le Mans this Saturday. The French automaker has been working on reviving the dormant marque, and looks poised to finally reveal its new sports car at its iconic home endurance race this weekend. Tipped to be called the Alpine AS1, the new sports car will bring the marque back out of retirement in a more real way than the ELMS-winning LMP2 prototype ever could. Expect it to be based on the mid-engined chassis underpinning the Renault RS 01 spec racer, but built for the road.

Focus ST diesel variant coming, just don't look for it here

Fri, 07 Mar 2014

A few years back, Volkswagen made some waves when it announced the Golf GTD - a diesel-powered car that, aside from its ultra-efficient, ultra-torquey engine, was identical to the gas-powered GTI. That meant cosseting sport seats, larger wheels, sportier suspension, larger brakes and a body kit that made the GTD indistinguishable from the GTI, except for the three little letters on the back and in the grille.
Now, Ford is looking to replicate VW's success, with a diesel version of the Focus ST. According to Motor Trend, the diesel-powered ST will use a 2.0-liter, 182-horsepower four-cylinder. With an unspecified amount of torque on offer (we'd guess around 280 pound-feet), the diesel hot hatch should hit 62 miles per hour in about eight seconds.
The report, which originally comes from Auto Express, claims the ST Diesel was confirmed by Ford Chief Marketing Officer Mark Fields during this week's Geneva Motor Show. Not surprisingly, it doesn't appear there are any plans to bring a diesel-powered Focus of any kind to the US, let alone one that uses the suspension, steering and other items from the ST. Of course, if there's an official confirmation from Ford, we'll be sure to report on it.

Ford promises 12 new global performance vehicles through 2020

Thu, Dec 11 2014

Ford just keeps rolling out the big announcements today. We've already told you about the next-gen Focus RS coming to the US and the upcoming Sync 3 infotainment system. And this latest one should perk up the ears of racing fans or anyone who enjoys an enthusiastic drive (basically, all Autoblog readers). The Blue Oval says it has "more than 12" new performance vehicles on the way globally through 2020. Unfortunately, the only one that the automaker confirms at the moment is the Focus RS, but recent rumors might suggest a few others. Ford reportedly has the Shelby Mustang GT350R, next-gen F-150 Raptor and a Ford GT successor all on the way, all of which could possibly debut at the Detroit Auto Show in January. The future GT might even take the company back to racing at Le Mans. Speaking of motorsports, Ford is also blending its performance vehicle and racing efforts worldwide into a unified entity by combining SVT, Team RS and Ford Racing into a new organization called Ford Performance. It's responsible not just for excelling on the track but also for developing aero improvements, electronics, powertrain and lightweight tech for the Blue Oval's vehicles. "Our new global Ford Performance team ties together racing, performance vehicles and parts. It will allow us to more quickly introduce products and accessories that meet the needs of customers around the world on-road and on the track," said Raj Nair, Ford group vice president, Global Product Development, in the company's press release. The automaker thinks this market might be booming, especially among younger buyers. For example, recent data shows Millennials buy ST models at twice the rate of the rest of Ford's cars. Scroll down to read the Blue Oval's full announcement of the new division and the plan to get excited about things to come. FORD DRIVING PERFORMANCE INNOVATION TO NEW LEVELS; MORE THAN 12 VEHICLES COMING FROM NEW GLOBAL TEAM Ford bringing more global performance vehicles to customers worldwide; more than 12 new performance vehicles through 2020 – including Focus RS – to be available globally Ford uniting regional performance engineering and racing teams as one global team under Ford Performance, delivering more new vehicles and parts, more quickly Ford will deliver more than 12 new performance vehicles for global enthusiasts through 2020, as the company announced today its new global Ford Performance team.
