    You have to admire somebody with so much skill, but that is truly horrible in my opinion....!!!!

    That is "Awesome Lady" from Washington State. He used three Econos to build that thing. Probably the most Radical early ever.

    We saw that up close and personal at the Spokane Early Ford V8 swap meet/show earlier this year. Have some more pics of that around here somewhere, including the interior, which was all engine. I think it had a 460 in the back, tubbed, unbelievable amount of work. I'm sure it must've been a show car on the circuit with that much work on it. My son loved/hated it. I lean toward the latter.

    Here is a link with a bunch of pics. It has an 800HP motor. It is a 454 bored to 468. My favorite early of all time.

    The detail along the hinges hides what I think is the ugliest part of the econoline. That van is awesome, I don't like the van styling, but I'm sure I'd like the guy who built it.
