1970 Ford Camper Special Van

this is a great rust free daily driver Ford Camper Van E300
and a daily driver, ready to hit the road now or on your next
road trip. A real piece of Americana when families took the
American built van on road trips and the SUV wasnt invented yet.

This also has a nice tow hitch installed outback.

Its a VERY RARE Conversion done by in 1970 best we can tell
for FORD dealers.
Has all the retro stuff from day 1 inside and ready to be restored
and take more road trips.

Maybe you can make it your Urban Assault Vehicle for when the
SHTF.

Working period: pump sink / propane stove / 110v outlet and more
Has water tank of course too.
The extra windows have a cool rugged no BS look to them too.
Camper top of course is fiberglass by Gypsy

There is a bunch of AC stuff still on the motor and I think
at one time, this could of had AC, if not, it looks like it
would be easy to install it.
Also saw a battery isolater under the hood.

These are extremely RARE to see still on the road
not many where built and many where left for dead back
in the 90s sadly enough.

DRIVETRAIN: the original motor was replaced with a rebuilt
Later model 200 6cyl and has about 35k miles on it.
the original 3 speed was replaced at the same time with a
truck style 4 spd on the floor with granny gear.
Some mild cutting to the floor was done for the shifter.
As is , this vans been all over the SW from Tucson to Yosemite
and back. Runs and drives great.
It could probably use a tune up soon, some of the stuff on
the motor looks old, but runs great.

INTERIOR: The original is dirty some and not been kept up
but its very original down to the formica flooring with gold
flakes. Someone installed some decent captains chairs in its
day which is a nice upgrade. But the interior is pretty cool
for its age. So original still, would be great to restore it with
some of todays upgrades but still keep the old period edge
to it would be awesome. 110V outlet works, so does the pump
up sink and propane stove. Even has a CB from the 70s !!

EXTERIOR: Original color I believe was white where someone
maybe even the factory could of done the blue sides.
The current paint is really bad, nothing pretty at all, but
functional. NO sign of bondo and NO sign of rust anywhere
on this very rare AZ Camper Van All the glass is good too
except one flat pcs on the dr side has a crack.
There are a few dents but nothing horrible.

SUSPENSION: all factory the best I can tell
Could use some cool rims, but as is the suspension is fine
and hop in it and drive anywhere ! Tires still decent too.

We put a lot of time and effort in marketing our cars and it shows.
People wait months for a car this solid to come up for sale
and even if you have to pay shipping to your area, it still beats
paying a body shop to hopefully fix a rusty car for weeks on end.
Having as much as the original steel on a restored car these days
speaks volumes.

Also, if you buy a car thats been "restored", who knows what sort
of surprises are hidden under new paint or thick undercoating.
People are flipping cars all the time when most of the jobs are
fast, for a quick buck and quality suffers.

Our auctions have NOTHING to hide .

exactly what you have in the end.

Email us with ANY questions before you bid please

youll never buy a total rust bucket again from anyone !!
Our Impeccable FEEDBACK speaks for itself.
Doing restoration on this type of project is less labor
intensive which means overall cost is less too !
With less horrid surprises later on.
Dont let auctions with little to no pics try to fool you.

On Jan-05-14 at 21:40:54 PST, seller added the following information:

I forgot to mention, I dont have the fuel line hooked up to the gas tank

Its probably a good idea to flush the tank out first and clear out all the lines
before hooking it up to the engine .

I did install a new fuel pump too.

I obviously havent driven this around any, but think with a little work

it could be a driver. Engine sounded good when it ran, and transmission

should be fine. Only reason it was parked yrs ago was family came

first and it sat.

Mustang driver proves wheels are overrated

Mon, 21 Apr 2014

We don't need to tell you that there's something missing in the image above. What we do need to tell you is that this is not a picture of a parked car stranded on the highway. This is, rather, just one frame from video of that three-wheeled Mustang traveling down the highway at highway-appropriate speed.
We don't know where you'd have to be nor how badly you'd have to be there to go shooting down the freeway in a car with three wheels, but if the New Daily News is correct, that place is somewhere in Texas. The video's short, but you'll have plenty of time to shake your head at it by just scrolling down.

2015 Ford Focus

Tue, 14 Oct 2014

Sitting down at the pre-drive briefing with Ford engineers ahead of sampling the refreshed 2015 Focus, water bottles clinked as we wet our whistles before Q&A. While pouring a glass, we noticed something stamped on the bottle label: "1L." One liter. We were palming the exact displacement of the EcoBoost engine our group was about to drive. This was undoubtedly coincidence (such bottles litter every conference and dinner table in Europe) but it served to drive home just how small the total swept volume of Ford's wunderkind powerplant really is. It's tiny.
Of course, this isn't our first run-in with the little triple - we've sampled its turbocharged charms before in Ford's smaller Fiesta. At that time, we found it had plenty of poke for the subcompact, but the larger C-segment Focus carries around another 450 pounds or so and pushes a wider profile through the air. Would the three-cylinder have the stuffing to make the most of the Focus' athletic chassis, or would it be a letdown? Would it be the same as it was when we tested it in a Euro-spec Focus a couple of years ago? There was nothing left for it but to head out on the bucolic roads surrounding Versailles the day after the Paris Motor Show and find out for ourselves.

Tier 1 suppliers call GM the worst OEM to work with

Mon, 12 May 2014

Among automakers with a big US presence, General Motors is the worst to work for, according to a new survey from Tier 1 automotive suppliers, conducted by Planning Perspectives, Inc.
The Detroit-based manufacturer, which has been under fire following the ignition switch recall and its accompanying scandal, finished behind six other automakers with big US manufacturing operations. Suppliers had issues with trust and communications, as well as intellectual property protection. GM was also the least likely to allow suppliers to raise their prices in the face of unexpected increases in material cost, all of which contributed to 55 percent of suppliers saying their relationship with GM was "poor to very poor."
GM's cross-town competitors didn't fare much better. Chrysler finished in fifth place, ahead of GM and behind Dearborn-based Ford, which was passed for third place this year by Nissan. Toyota took the top marks, while Honda captured second place.
