Here's a used older style 1972 Ford Econoline Super Van that I'm selling for my son who is moving up north and can't take it with him. He bought it about 5 years and 10,000 miles ago and used it mainly to haul his motorcycles.
Here's what I know about it after talking to him and if you have any questions I can contact him to get you the answers.
It has a good running Ford 302 V-8 engine with a re-manufactured Motorcraft 2 barrel carburetor and HEI distributor & new spark plugs with plug wires. A lot of work was done 3 years ago to make it roadworthy and here's his list of what was done:
- The automatic transmission was completely rebuilt
- The brakes were done front & rear
- The cooling system was gone through including a new 3 core radiator, water pump, belts and hoses
Recently he replaced all the tires with 700x15 and it has some 'old school' Western aluminum rims on it. The battery, ignition switch, alternator,starter solenoid, and U-joints have also been replaced in the past few months.
The engine has headers installed with dual Thrush mufflers and downdraft shorty tailpipes at the rear near the rear wheel. It has a nice mellow but throaty sound.
Here's a couple things that I noticed since taking possession of it: There is no radio, heater, or wipers. The inside has some old carpeting on the floorboards front & rear. The doghouse is missing some bolts that hold it to the floor. The steering wanders and probably needs some bushings but I haven't had it checked by a mechanic. The driver's side door was changed by the previous owner and there is no key for that door and all the others are lockable with a key that I have. The right rear fender is damaged and there is a scrape in the side door. Also, a small area of rust at the bottom of the passenger door. Lastly, the seats need to be re-upholstered as shown in the photos.
It has a trailer hitch and wiring at the taillights and a locking gas cap.
Look closely at the 21 photos in the listing to see the vehicle's condition.
Overall, it would be a good vehicle for a gardener, plumber, painter, handyman or anyone that needs to keep their equipment stored and locked inside. Also, it would make a good daily driver or an excellent candidate for a restoration.
It is registered until December 31, 2013 and is Smog Exempt here in California!

2014 Ford Fusion order guide reveals new base Hybrid model, equipment changes
Tue, 23 Apr 2013We've gotten our grubby little digits on the dealer order guide for the as-yet-unreleased 2014 Ford Fusion thanks to an anonymous tipster, and while there isn't much that's unexpected, there are some meaningful equipment changes to report after the rakish sedan's first year on the market.
Mechanically, the big news is, of course, the recently confirmed availability of the 1.5-liter EcoBoost four-cylinder paired with a six-speed automatic. The powertrain replaces the 1.6-liter automatic setup of 2013, though if you want a manual transmission, you'll still get the extra .1-liter of displacement.
On the equipment front, there are newly available rear inflatable seatbelts - as seen previously on the Explorer - along with a new heated steering wheel and cooled seat option on Titanium and Titanium Hybrid models (the latter two options will be late availability).
Recharge Wrap-up: Tesla considers Model III SUV and wagon, Ford tears Tesla apart
Mon, Oct 27 2014Worries over Brazil's electric grid mean EVs are excluded from green car incentives. As part of a new efficiency program, non-plug-in hybrids will be eligible for a reduction in import duties, while EVs and plug-in hybrids will not. Brazil's government is concerned that the country's grid lacks the capacity to handle the increased load from an influx of EVs. Brazil plans to create a new incentive program - perhaps a more inclusive one - when the current one expires at the end of 2015. Read more at Green Car Reports. Tesla could make SUV and wagon derivatives of the upcoming Model III sedan. Tesla's VP of engineering, Chris Porritt, told Auto Express that to reach as many customers as possible, Tesla would consider all its options. "SUVs, estates - who knows?" says Porritt. He also says that while the company is currently focused on products with a broader appeal, another Roadster or other sports car aren't out of the question in the future. Read more at Auto Express. Ford admits to a Tesla Model S teardown. Ford CEO Mark Fields says that after disassembling, reassembling and driving the model S, his company is "very familiar with that product." He also says the Ford has the capability to build a similarly high-tech, long-range electric car. The questions still remains if Ford has plans for such a vehicle, but Fields says that it fits within Ford's "product philosophy." Read more at Business Insider and at USA Today.
