1973 Ford Econoline E-100 Supervan Custom Vanner 70's Bike Hauler Van on 2040-cars
Sparta, Illinois, United States
1973 Ford Econoline E-100 Van Supervan Resto/Custom about 3 years ago. Completely stripped, primed, and repainted. Nice two-tone metallic silver/grey paintwork with custom flames outlined in metallic orange. Bodywork on interior pocket bottoms of doors done in fiber glass. Patch panels (original from the 70's, so you know they were quality, thick panels) on Driver and Passenger door. Replaced Sliding door with a spare that had no windows to truly give it that cargo look. Barn doors in the back. Complete interior floor was sprayed with bedliner. Walls were insulated, (styrofoam type) and covered with masonite throughout. Made a half wall of the same on the driver side just in front of the rear wheel well; which houses the speakers. All walls and ceiling were painted black, with the intent to cover with Diamond tuck vinyl at a later date. Never got to it. This means theres still room for customization on your part. NOS Ford Truck Bench seat from the early 80's was placed along the driver side wall. Blue in color. No other seating in the rear. Leather bucket seats up front from a toyota Scion. They look great and are very comfortable. NEW crate 302 motor built to stock specs, attahced to a rebuilt AOD 4 speed transmission. This combination works and performs great. Can cruise at 70 mph all day long. NEW aluminum radiator keeps her cool. Offset tires to give it a little bit of a hotrod feel. Manual Air shocks in the rear to assist withthe ride while hauling bikes etc. Pictures truly reflect condition. The pic with the bubbles, I believe these to be bubbles in the paint and not rust. I tried collapsing them and couldnt. Feel free to contact me with questions: (618) 303-6007 For sale locally as well so I reserve the right to end this auction at any time. Buyer responsible for shipping arrangements. I will help in loading where possible. Good Luck. Check out my other auctions for other interesting items.

Ford could post best-ever profits in Q1 2013
Tue, 23 Apr 2013Analysts are saying that Ford Motor Company may have earned a record $2.7 billion pretax profit in North America during the first quarter of 2013, a number that represents its highest first quarter profit ever. The impressive earnings are further proof that the American automaker is making a solid comeback as the economy begins to recover.
Morgan Stanley and JP Morgan Chase are estimating that Ford's first quarter North American profit may have topped 12 percent. The firm cited the automaker's fresh lineup, but noted that CEO Alan Mulally needs to uphold the pace as the company works to gain ground in the car and utility segments.
Ford's success has been led by increased demand for its F-Series pickup, the best-selling vehicle in the US for 31 years, and by the Fusion sedan that recently recorded its best-ever quarterly sales in the domestic market. Ford is expected to release its first-quarter revenue on Wednesday, of this week.
Ford readying dozen+ Mustang models for SEMA
Wed, 22 Oct 2014Ford is unsurprisingly bringing a herd of its new 2015 Mustang models to next month's SEMA show in Las Vegas. Over a dozen of them are arriving from top aftermarket outfits like Galpin Auto Sports, Steeda, Roush and others. The Blue Oval isn't just shining a spotlight on the V8 model, though. The new EcoBoost 2.3-liter version with 310 horsepower and 320 pound-feet of torque is also getting its time in the sun.
Among the shined-up ponies will be a showcar helping Galpin celebrate the Mustang's golden anniversary, with the car is covered in the precious metal. The black paint over the body has gold flecks in it, and the wheels, side sills, brake calipers and badges all match, as well. However, it takes more than something shiny to truly impress at SEMA, and Galpin's Mustang also packs a Whipple supercharger for the 5.0-liter V8, boosting the bottom line to 725 horsepower. Take that, Hellcat. There's even a window in the hood to look through, not unlike a Chevrolet Corvette ZR1. The coupe also wears new headlights with LED turn signals that activate in sequence, just like the taillights, and the interior features black-and-gold Recaro seats.
Also set for its SEMA debut is an MRT showcar that takes the EcoBoost Mustang for a gallop with its TKO treatment. The black and orange two-tone car has been designed to incorporate select road racing elements. Mechanical upgrades include 14-inch brake rotors with new ducts, a Vortech air-to-air intercooler and an Air Lift suspension. The Mustang also shows off the company's products for added style and performance including a hood with integrated heat extractors and a unique front splitter.
Fitting Retirement: Grand Marquis last Mercury off the line
Wed, 05 Jan 2011The signs have come down and retail production ended back in October of 2010. Now, the very last Mercury model has rolled off the assembly line. This last Mercury somewhat fittingly takes the form of a Grand Marquis reporting for fleet duty. It was built at the St. Thomas plant in Ontario, Canada, which is the same facility that continues to produce the Ford Crown Victoria and Lincoln Town Car for fleet and livery duty.
St. Thomas' days are numbered, however, as the factory is slated to close on August 31. When it goes, the Panther platform is likely to follow. So long, and thanks for all the fish memories.
