Falcon Van Interiors

Howdy Everybody,
I'm a new guy here and I have some questions about the falcon vans. I am looking to buy an E series van and I want a window van. I have seen some with interior trim/surround around the windows, is that trim standard on all falcon vans?
Thanks

Thanks G-Man, and thanks for keeping the classifieds loaded also!

Not all Falcon vans had the window trim.

I don't think a base Falcon has window trim. A Falcon Deluxe or Clubwagon would have the trim. Similar to the Dodges...a Sportsman did not have many ammenities whereas the Custom Sportsman was loaded with all the nice interior goodies.

It's not standard equipment... but it could have been originally ordered on the standard Club wagon - mine was.

I've been casually looking for replacement pieces since someone drilled small holes for curtain rods into mine. More than likely I'll end up filling the holes and painting.

Good luck with your purchase... and have fun shopping!

got mine out of a club wagon they pass side back was cut for cabinets
been looking shipping seems to be the hard part

they had different trim levels. we have a DCW (deluxe club wagon) that has all that trim around the windows, the dash skirt, chrome bympers and the stainless body trim.

the wife and I are talking of selling it. probably this summer or late fall.

Austin, that is one clean looking Falcon. What size motor do you have in it? She's a real beauty with all the extra trims!

Hey all. I have an incomplete fiberglass surround set for sale. Supervan length. Long driverside piece, curved driver side piece about 3 other pieces. Too big to ship. Asking $100 bucks. Can drive down to bayarea for another 25. Selling nice passenger seat red cover for 75. Retractable step for 75 and rear door pairs for 50 bucks. Pm number and i will send pics. Matt in reno

vanny, it has the original 170. we liked it b/c it was very original, all the little bits and pieces are there, and it was a driver. the previous owner had it painted (inside and out), motor rebuilt (from what I was told) and then he had a stroke, let it sit for 10 years. he lost the keys, and I bought it. it ran rough when I got it home. I replaced the fuel tank, and then I let it sit for nearly a year. then I ran into problems so I just had it towed off to a old school professional hotrod-restoration guy.

we’ll see how we feel about it when we get it back. our enthusiasm for it has declined over the last few months.

one thing that is not obvious from the pics, there is heavy metallic flake in the paint, I’m not sure it would’ve been my choice. also the pssngr door has bondo on it that has cracked. otherwise, very rust free and clean.

Thanks for all the info Austin, if you decide at some point to let it go, keep us posted. If you get it back and fall in love with it again, even better. She's a real beauty!

I have several for sale, shipping from the east coast though.

I believe that it came in the club wagon as someone else said. My 66 has them, but I don't think they are easy to find. The one on the drivers side extends to about 8' in length (all one long piece).

im not sure if all of them come with trim but mine has a full set.. i can send you some pictures if you would like. apparently they're pretty hard to find.

Not necessary. Your van is cool. Mine is in the shop getting lowered in the front at the moment. Thanks and enjoy the site. I found bumpers on here (once before) from someone, so it's a great place to get stuff.

Respectfully,

James
