    just found a 66 pannel has the 240 six and the ford 9" its saveable (not to bad concidering its a van that has lived in C.T. all its life.) wheres the plate that has all the information? i opened the door and looked at the tag on the door, i just dont have a clue where the other tag is. im holding out on getting it for now , i have a line on an econoline pickup, i might be too late but im going to wait to see if i get a call in a week or so.

    far rear corner on one of the braces, inside the bed right behind the tailight. would go out an d look to verify which side but its mighty dark out and weathers nasty.

    One of my old trucks is for sale here in RI. It's a 64 regular van, 170 3 speed. I bought in in Tuscon AZ but it spent most of it's time in Modesto CA. It has a Ford remanufactured engine that just had a valve job done, new clutch and radiator. The van is solid with one small rust hole. The only bad part is the front is dented pretty good. I sold him a front panel with the van that is straight. He is asking $2000.00 for it.found one under my nose 64_eco10

    When I sold the truck I gave him a complete front nose panel. I think it would be easier to install the nose panel but it could also be repaired. The rest of the truck is straight. The truck is in Warwick, about 5 minutes from my house.
