1973 Ford Econoline E-100 Van Supervan

Resto/Custom about 3 years ago. Completely stripped, primed, and repainted. Nice two-tone metallic silver/grey paintwork with custom flames outlined in metallic orange. Bodywork on interior pocket bottoms of doors done in fiber glass. Patch panels (original from the 70's, so you know they were quality, thick panels) on Driver and Passenger door.

Replaced Sliding door with a spare that had no windows to truly give it that cargo look. Barn doors in the back.

Complete interior floor was sprayed with bedliner. Walls were insulated, (styrofoam type) and covered with masonite throughout. Made a half wall of the same on the driver side just in front of the rear wheel well; which houses the speakers. All walls and ceiling were painted black, with the intent to cover with Diamond tuck vinyl at a later date. Never got to it. This means theres still room for customization on your part.

NOS Ford Truck Bench seat from the early 80's was placed along the driver side wall. Blue in color. No other seating in the rear.

Leather bucket seats up front from a toyota Scion. They look great and are very comfortable.

NEW crate 302 motor built to stock specs, attahced to a rebuilt AOD 4 speed transmission. This combination works and performs great. Can cruise at 70 mph all day long. NEW aluminum radiator keeps her cool.

Offset tires to give it a little bit of a hotrod feel. Manual Air shocks in the rear to assist withthe ride while hauling bikes etc.

Pictures truly reflect condition. The pic with the bubbles, I believe these to be bubbles in the paint and not rust. I tried collapsing them and couldnt.

2013 Ford C-Max Hybrid recalled over lack of roof padding

Mon, 29 Jul 2013

Ford is recalling 33,021 units of its 2013 C-Max Hybrid not equipped with optional panoramic roof panels. During testing, the model in question returned testing results for occupant head injuries that fell outside of criteria laid out in the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard. The issue puts occupants at greater risk of injury in the event of a crash if they are in an affected car.
The recall will begin August 19, at which time C-Max Hybrid owners can take their cars to dealers to have energy-absorbent material installed between the headliner and roof. The bulletin below from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has more information.

Ford C-Max, Fusion hybrids subject of MPG lawsuit in California

Fri, 01 Mar 2013

A California lawsuit over the fuel economy claims for the 2013 Ford C-Max was first reported back in December. Based on the numerous reports we've heard of disgruntled owners failing to get their car's EPA fuel economy ratings on the C-Max and 2013 Fusion Hybrid, we suspected there would be more to this story. The Detroit News is reporting that two California law firms are combining their lawsuits against Ford on this matter for "false and misleading" claims.
The article states that there are hundreds of C-Max and Fusion Hybrid owners who have joined the lawsuit, but the issue isn't limited to customers. In December, Consumer Reports extensively tested both the Fusion Hybrid and C-Max and found that both hybrids performed significantly worse than their EPA claims. This all comes just a few months after Hyundai and Kia took the unprecedented step of lowering the fuel economy ratings for all of their 2012 and 2013 model-year vehicles.
