1978 FORD E250 QUADRAVAN 4X4 Here is one super cool BEAST! I recently found this 1978 Ford E250 Quadravan. This vehicle is amazing and built with a mega heavy duty four wheel drive system. The van has a strong running big block 460 V8, C6 Automatic Transmission and a divorced transfer case. Both solid axles have skid plates and are massive. I believe a Dana 60 in the front and a Dana 70 in the rear. The truck has factory Air Conditioning, although no belt is over the compressor currently and would guess there issues. The rig also has power steering and power disc brakes. The truck runs and drives and the transmission shifts smooth. It truck has strong oil pressure and holds good temperature. The van has duel fuel tanks and duel batteries. I love the color too! I have found zero rust issues and no signs of body filler. All the doors open and close tight and lock! The tires still have lots of meat on them! The driveline is complete and the four wheel drive operates as it should. The front seats are original and the truck comes with the original bench seat and several cool and usable captains chairs. I few things to point out about the rig I’ve noticed, the valve covers seem to be leaking a bit. The front end needs work, tie-rods ends etc. It has lots of side to side play currently but I have been driving it. Sadly...while parked, someone ran into the rear drivers side rear corner. Most of the damage luckily is on the factory seemed corner cap, and can be replaced with a two-wheel drive donor van. These are easy to find in your local junkyard. All and all this is a wonderful vehicle. It is a vehicle very worthy of the work. The truck is sold as found! Please feel free to call 210-548-1310 before bidding if you’ve got questions.

Ford Transit gets outfitted for prison duty
Wed, 24 Sep 2014Between the Taurus-based Police Interceptor, the Explorer-based Police Interceptor Utility and the F-150 and Expedition special service vehicles, Ford has no lack of offerings for law enforcement. And now it has one more in the form of the new Transit PTV.
Based on the fullsize Transit van, the Prisoner Transport Vehicle can move as many as 12 prisoners in three separate compartments between detention facilities. Created in collaboration with Pennsylvania-based Havis Prisoner Transport Solutions and with input from Ford's Police Advisory Board, the Transit PTV takes advantage of the Transit's considerable configuration options that include three roof heights, two wheelbases, three lengths and four body-styles - not to mention engine options that include the flex-fuel 3.7-liter V6, 3.5-liter EcoBoost and 3.2-liter Power Stroke diesel.
"Transit PTV is the latest example of Ford's deep commitment to helping provide law enforcement agencies with capable vehicles. This concept proves Transit is upfit-ready and designed to Built Ford Tough standards," said Jonathan Honeycutt, Ford police marketing manager. "Many Police Advisory Board members have had the chance to drive this vehicle and they are excited about it. This new vehicle is tough, smart and efficient - ideal for the needs of law enforcement agencies."
Ford Explorer is America's new favorite police car
Mon, 24 Mar 2014There is a new vehicle that you should keep an eye out for when you're going a little too fast down the Interstate. Ford's Explorer-based Police Interceptor Utility was the bestselling new law enforcement model in the country last year, and signs show that won't be changing anytime soon.
Ford sold 14,086 Interceptor Utilities in 2013, up 140% from the year before, and 10,897 Interceptor Sedans, up 31%, according to USA Today. Overall, the brand's police sales were up 48 percent, and they were enough to boost the company's law enforcement vehicle market share by 9 points to nearly 50 percent.
The success comes just a few years after it made the decision to finally retire the long-serving Crown Victoria-based cruiser for two more modern vehicles. "We had to reinvent the category," said Chris Terry of Ford Communications to Autoblog. The automaker had to convince police departments that a unibody chassis without a V8 could perform better than a model that had been a law enforcement staple for years.
Meet Shelby Mustang GT500 Miller, Iowa's latest hatchet-wielding criminal
Fri, Jul 11 2014Well, we've found the long-lost cousin of yesterday's Bentley-tattooed criminal from Florida. This is Shelby Mustang GT500 Miller. No, seriously. While his name seems just like the sort of thing we'd expect the Sunshine State to produce, he actually hails from Iowa. Despite coming from the Hawkeye State, Miller was arrested for a decidedly Floridian offense – getting in a bar fight and then returning with a hatchet. The only way this story could be more Florida is if meth, a manatee or bath salts were involved. The fight, which was at the Cheap Seats Sports Bar, started off typically enough, with a verbal argument in the parking lot (please, please let his nemesis be named "Chevrolet Camaro Z/28 Smith"). This, naturally, attracted passing police officers. Things were broken up and some friends took Miller to his home, which was apparently just behind the bar. That's when he returned with the hatchet tucked under his shirt. Miller promptly proceeded to take out the implement of destruction in the bar's bathroom and... forget about it entirely. Fortunately, the police hadn't left the area yet. Not surprisingly, Miller was arrested for a parole violation, as well as public intoxication and going armed with intent. Still, cool name, bro.
