by Cdcracing Mon Mar 04, 2013 10:55 amI bought me a 63 ford econoline van to restore last week . I had to do some traveling to get it . It's going to have a lot of work to do to it . Yesterday I went to church with my mom and I was driving her car we pulled out onto the hwy and went to the turn around spot and started heading the other direction and out of the corner of my eye I seen a early 60s econoline van from the back .there used to be old semi trucks and trailers out there and a bunch of construction junk out there . Looks like its in good shape . All the windows , head lights , brake lights , bumpers and everything there . It's only 2 miles from the house . When I get back in this weekend I'm going to check on it .

I saw one that I thought I might buy for parts and the old man had had it for years, told me stories about camping and fishing in it, heck it still had fishing rods in it from the last time he used it like 20 years ago, I asked him if he would sell it, he said that it was already sold to someone he knew, I said if you don't mind me asking how much did you sell it for? He said $700. Well it was rusted down really bad, sitting in a field full of mice and weeds growing up around it,....and 3 years later it is still sitting there

Well I finally got to talk to the man that has the van and he said that he don't want to sell it . He said that it didn't have a title and he was using it to store truck parts . But he did say he would sell some of the parts off of it . So tomorrow I'm going to meet him to see what I could use .
