I found here out in the Arizona desert as I was hunting parts. She runs great and came stuffed to the roof with parts. So far I have put in ignition switch, headlight switch, windshield wipers, cleaning up the front floor board rust. Up next white west coast mirrors, under dash heater, and trying to find a front floor mat. This fever is getting worse, already put a deposit down on van number three. It's and 8 door filled with parts. Call me if you need any parts 843-327-7017

Nice van. A little unusual with the blind spot window on the passenger side on a regular van. Ford built a few strange window combos over the years. What are your plans for this one? It looks like it will make a nice van with just a little work.

I plan on getting all of her systems functioning, leaving little to make her a daily driver. Putting another one back on the road, for someone else to restore or rat rod it. I think it was a Ma Bell special order for safety. Spent most of it's life in the desert Some body is gonna get a great project van. Very little rust, and what it has looks pretty awesome.The worst spot is the front floors, easy fix with replacement panels available. Shipping was a night mare, and it was held hostage for another$250.00. It was packed to the roof with doors, bumpers and tons of other parts , so I cant complain about that to much. All told it cost me $2100.00 to ship it from down near the Mexico border. Nobody wanted to go down there
