This sale is for a: 1996 Ford E350 1-ton SuperVan Chateau 15 passenger window van. I have owned this van since new. I purchased it in Marquette, Michigan and drove it to where we lived in Casa Grande, Arizona. The raised roof was installed along with the UVL (under vehicle lift) wheelchair lift in Phoenix, Arizona. The van spent most of its life in the southwest. Five years in Casa Grande, AZ and six years in El Paso, TX. It is has been in Marquette, MI since October of 2006. There are some areas of rust starting to appear. Some of the pictures show the spots. I have not noticed any rust outs, but where paint has lifted and the metal surface has been exposed to the elements, the surface is rusted. The front seats were reupholstered, but the driver’s seat is coming apart at the seam were it is rubbed getting in and out. The rest of the seats are original and are in excellent condition. I don’t think the rear seat has ever been sat in. It had been removed for the UVL electric/hydraulic pump system. All the passenger seats to make it a 15 passenger van are included. The one right behind the drivers seat is not mounted as to allow access for a wheelchair. The wheelchair tie-down straps are included and the floor tabs are still installed. The rear seat is included but is not installed as the UVL electric/hydraulic system is mounted in the back and takes up part of the room required to mount the seat. The present configuration allows for eight people seated and one wheelchair tied down. The carpet is showing it’s age with some wear and stains. No smells! All the gauges work. The factory original radio with cassette player works. The dual air conditioning works. The rear heater is presently disconnected due to a leak in the line that runs above the UVL from the engine to the heater. It runs the original 7.3 Power Stroke Diesel engine which had rebuilt injectors and new glow plugs installed for the first time last year. New injector harnesses were installed as well. The engine has had the oil changed every 3,000 to 5,000 miles depending on the severity of the weather and the use of the vehicle. I did do some towing with it in the heat and through the mountains so would change the oil more often. The brakes were all gone through almost 2 years ago with new drums, rotors, pads, shoes, etc. The transmission was replaced at a Ford dealer in El Paso, about 10 years ago. It still works well, and as the engine, it has received regular maintenance. The Traction-Lock rear end was rebuild about 6 years ago, due to a bad bearing on the unit. The rear hub-caps are missing. Plastic tabs broke and at different times the hubcaps passed me while going down the road. The aluminum wheels are showing their age and could use a stripping, polishing and a clear coating in order to look good again. But they serve well as they are. All five tires are 16 inch radial tires with very good tread left on them. If you purchase the van, you are welcome to all the records I have available on it. The UVL has not been used in at least 6-8 months, and was operating slowly when last used. It should be cleaned and serviced as needed. Lately (lack of use?) it has given me a few times when it would not start right up. If I let it sit for a few minutes and go back to it, let the glow plugs cycle, and crank it, it fires right up. Every time the dealer hooks the tester up to it, it starts right up. They have not been able to get a trouble code on it. The thinking at this point is, it may be the high pressure oil pump for the injectors is not giving enough pressure ... sometimes! But as stated, if I wait for a few minutes and try again, it starts up. If you are bidding to buy you need to know this information as you are buying it as is and I want you to know all the facts. The van has served our family well. The reason we are selling it is we are no longer in need of such a large vehicle. It carried our family of seven for many years, 3 of whom were in wheelchairs. It towed car trailers for me when I would go to car shows and swap meets. It is a powerhouse of a vehicle and with some additional regular care should have a lot of life left in it. THE FINE PRINT and THINGS YOU NEED TO KNOW: I am sure I have left some details out, so check out the pictures, reread what I have written, e-mail me with your questions AND then bid. The Club Wagon is being sold as is, where is. There is no warranty stated, written, or implied. This is a 19 year old vehicle, bought in October of 1995. As any vehicle of this vintage it may need a few things done. I would encourage you to inspect the vehicle first. I have given any info as to the needs of the van, as I know them, in the most honest manner. I like the van, having owned it since new, and may have inadvertently overlooked some of it’s clunks, rattles, and little quirks. You will be satisfied with my honest description. Yes, there is a reserve. No, I will not give that out. If you cannot live without the truck, make me an offer I cannot refuse and I’ll set a Buy It Now price for you to purchase the truck. e-mail me with questions. I will gladly call serious buyers if you send your phone and best time to call, but I am not available Sunday mornings. A nonrefundable deposit of $500.00 must be made within 48 hours of the end of auction. It may be made either by PayPal or U.S.P.S. Postal Money Order (any other type of funds will be considered nonpayment). BALANCE is due within 7 days of the end of the auction or (which ever occurs first) prior to picking the vehicle up, shipping the vehicle, or receiving delivery of the vehicle from the seller. BALANCE must be by wire transfer, cash or other funds that are verifiable and guaranteed at the time of exchange. I will work the details out with the purchaser. NEITHER THE VEHICLE NOR THE TITLE WILL BE GIVEN OUT UNTIL THE FUNDS ARE FULLY EXCHANGED, VERIFIED, AND USABLE IN MY ACCOUNT. The car is sold as is, where is, however, I will work with you and/or your shipper on being available. Buyer pays all shipping and insurance costs. The winning bidder is responsible for any and all title, plates, taxes, transfers, inspections, insurance, and any other charges related to the purchase of the car. As always, I retain the right to end the auction for any reason, including if sold through another venue.
Thank you for looking and have a great day. I forgot to mention it has never been in an accident nor has it been repainted. Yes there are a few parking lot dings from a people being careless. But never a highway or major accident. Thanks. |

Ford recalls 300,000 Crown Vics over lighting module
Wed, Dec 23 2015The Basics: Ford is recalling 312,814 units of the Crown Victoria and Mercury Grand Marquis sedans from the 2003-2005 model years. They were built at the St. Thomas Assembly Plant between Oct. 3, 2001, and Aug. 2, 2005. Ford says 296,004 of those units are located in the United States, with another 14,714 in Canada and 2,096 in Mexico. The Problem: The solder joints on the lighting control module could crack, depriving the headlamps of the power they need to light the way ahead. That could increase the risk of a crash, particularly at night and in other low-visibility situations. Injuries/Deaths: Ford reports that it is aware of 11 accidents that resulted from the problem, leading to one injury described as "minor." The Fix: The manufacturer is instructing dealers to replace the entire lighting control module. If You Own One: Make sure your headlights are working before getting under way. If they're not, avoid driving under low-light conditions, including at night, in heavy precipitation, or in fog.

Ford Focus RS ready to make our hot hatch dreams real
Fri, 17 Oct 2014Ford's current hot hatch siblings the Fiesta ST and Focus ST are already two pretty great entries into the segment, but there's always a desire for a little more. Thankfully, it looks like the Blue Oval is ready to satiate that need because it's continuing to test the even more powerful Focus RS around Europe. According to our spy shooters, these shots come from near the Nürburgring.
As with previous photos, Ford engineers continue to heavily camouflage the front end of the RS prototypes, but there's a big difference here. Unlike earlier ones, this example appears to have a closer-to-production-ready front bumper rather than just a horizontal strip for the license plate. That may point to development getting somewhat closer to wrapping up. Although, this one lacks the larger rear wing from prior testers, and the exhaust also appears to be a work in progress with the rear diffuser covered in mesh in these latest shots.
The RS is rumored to be using the 2.3-liter turbocharged four-cylinder from the 2015 Mustang, but power is reportedly turned up from 310 horsepower in the 'Stang to somewhere between 325 hp and 350 hp for the Focus. Routing all that just through the front wheels could be a recipe for serious torque steer, and all-wheel drive is potentially being used for better traction.
Xcar shows how to drive the Ford Model T
Wed, Jan 21 2015A couple of weeks ago Xcar posted a teaser review of the Ford Model T, a look at what the British duo would have been doing if they'd been doing their thing for 100 years. Now we have their complete, 12-minute take on the what might be, as they say, "arguably the most important car of the 20th century." Thankfully, instead of just a review, Xcar spends about half the time giving us a tour of history, from Ford's early days working for the Edison Illuminating Company to his racing days and founding of several car companies that either died or became other car companies after he left, like Cadillac. They also line up the pieces and the sales realities that led to Ford implementing – not creating, mind you – assembly-line production of the Tin Lizzie. And then they get into how crazy it is to drive, like how a driver needs two of the three pedals, the handbrake lever and a steering column stalk to get into high gear. Enjoy the video above on a 100-year-old car that is "unbelievably comfortable," "mildly terrifying" and ready to do just about anything.
