Wow: Restored 1969 E-300 Van Must See V8 302 All Original Drivetrain Runs Great on 2040-cars
Tolland, Connecticut, United States
I just got this in to Sell for a Friend.I must say when I first saw it I was blown away how nice it is so I do my usual and take it for a couple days and put some miles on it to give a real description of it.So after talking to owner he has owned it for 3 years and bought it from the Estate of a good friend who passed away and was the original Owner sense New and he is the one who spent $ 10000.00 about 10 years ago re-storing the Body which in the pictures you can see what a Job they did to get it to look this good and original looking because he loved this Van and wanted to preserve it. he was a plumber that is why all the original wood cabinets are still there on the inside.So after the drive and putting it up on a lift and taking pictures so you can see what I see and answer most of your questions on how it looks.It starts right up when you pull the choke out and pump gas peddle twice No smoke came out the tail pipe it takes a while to warm up almost think a rebuild on the carb would help it out and yes I could have pulled off fresh air snorkel to carb but left to show it's original and falling apart. So once on my way and getting use to the 3 Seed Manuel Colum shift runs great has plenty of Power with the 302 V8 . Drives real good of course no power steering or brakes it's a Real Work Van ! All the gauges and lights work all windows work no cracks Has the Original Owner Manuel !.It's kind of Cool how the door's swing all the way forward when you let them go to the door stop. As you can see with the pictures under the van how much rust was cut out and all New metal was put in and the frame rails being fixed with Real Box Steel to fix the Frame the Right Way ! I try'ed to find a comparable for him to give him a idea what it's worth but there are NO comparable's anywhere to be found because being a Work Van when they were Used up then Junked !!! So this is Super Rare being a 1 ton 1969 and still looking this good it's up to your Bidding what's it worth ...being sold as is no warranty expressed or implied in Connecticut dose *NOT give titles on 25 years or older there is a *Bill of Sale and the *Registration on the bottom of it is a tear off is sign'ed over to New Owner. also for sale locally also feel free to come out and see it and drive it I am 20 min outside Hartford CT 06084 Good Luck Bidding....

Ford confirms Everest SUV production for China
Sat, 19 Apr 2014According to Ford, the Chinese SUV segment grew by 49 percent in 2013, and the Blue Oval held a 4.5 percent market share. At the 2014 Beijing Motor Show, Ford is showing the Everest SUV that, while just a concept for now, will go into production in the near future.
The Everest is a big, brawny seven-seat SUV that mixes solid, chiseled styling and contemporary Ford design cues. Up front there is an angular version of the trapezoidal grille and sharp, wraparound headlights. The beltline rises in the rear to make the back appear higher than the front. The rear seems just as chiseled, with the taillights resting in jagged scallops. There is no doubt that this concept means to look rugged, and ready for rough roads - the whole thing looks pretty great.
The truck was penned by Ford's Asia Pacific design and engineering team in Australia, and it was first shown in Sydney last year. Ford's JMC joint venture will build the truck for the Chinese market, and it will be sold at Ford dealers there. The Blue Oval isn't hinting at what powers the production version yet, but it reportedly shares some components with the foreign-market Ranger.
Watch how Ford torture-tested the 2015 F-150
Wed, 09 Apr 2014The Ford F-150 has been the best-selling truck in the United States for the past 37 years, and the best-selling vehicle outright for the past 32. That's quite a legacy, and thus, it's no surprise that Ford worked super-duper-extra hard on creating the all-new, aluminum-bodied 2015 F-150 that debuted at the Detroit Auto Show earlier this year.
During an event at the company's headquarters in Dearborn, MI this week, we were able to see all of the ways that Ford endurance tests, not just the new F-150, but all of its vehicles. From examining things like light exposure to interior materials and paint finishes, to making sure that corrosion absolutely does not happen when steel components come in contact with aluminum panels in the new truck. The goal: ensure that the new F-150 is nothing short of "Built Ford Tough."
But that's only a small part of the story. Of course, the new F-150 has to be able to withstand whatever a pickup buyer might throw at it - and truck buyers arguably demand the most from their vehicles. So in an effort to convey just what the new F-150 had to go through before being given the final go-ahead, Ford has released a series of videos, showing how its new halo truck was indeed torture tested.
Ford brings FPV Falcon production in house [w/video]
Thu, 21 Feb 2013For the first time since 1976, Ford of Australia is bringing the assembly of its stonking Ford Performance Vehicle line back in-house to the company's Broadmeadows and Geelong facilities. That's a point of pride for FPV, which builds high-performance versions of the Australian Falcon model like the F6, GS and the heroic GT seen here.
In the video below, we hear FPV employees talking in hushed tones about the important legacy that cars like the GT have for Australian gearheads of all stripes, and how proud they are to say that hand-built machines like this GT R-Spec with its Boss 355 engine are now rolling out of their home base. For our part, we're just dying to drive this version of the Coyote V8; the engine is rocking a "Miami" supercharger from Harrop and makes some 450 horsepower.
Continue on below for the video, or you can check out some images of the new FPV at the facility, as well as a gallery of the GT R-Spec car.
