    My newest early Econoline arrived today from AZ. It's a 1964 regular van, Heavy Duty with a 4 speed. No rust with a couple of small dents, all original paint. Most of the paint is worn off. The van came from the AZ/CA border near Needles CA.
    It has 4.57 gears, they'll be the first to get changed. Also it came without a heater or mirrors from the factory.

    I had MJR Transport from Glendale AZ ship it up. He picked it up at my friends house in Glendale and dropped it in my driveway 5 days later, $1200.00. The van was a camper but all that is long gone. It had a stove, heater, refrigerator and double bunk in it. The 4 speed column shift is original and only available in 64. The windows will be gone soon along with the mirrors. I plan to keep it almost stock with just better seats, dashpad, full headliner and a vinyl floor mat. I am going to keep the original color and do the interior blue. I am removing the rear bumper and putting a chrome 65/67 front bumper along with chrome small mirrors and front directional trim. I just sold another one to a freind with a 4 speed. It had a little rust and a dent in the front panel so I replaced it with this one. It's still at my shop and hopefully he'll have it on the road for the summer. He already installed a 1977 200 (42,00 miles) with an automatic and picked up a 9" rear axle for it.
    The BMW in the background is a 74 2002 tii, fuel injected. I just put a new interior in it,. It's a 1 owner car with over 200,000 miles on it.
