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.

This car is 95% rust free Arizona car

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.

exactly what you have in the end.

Email us with ANY questions before you bid please

Our Impeccable FEEDBACK speaks for itself.
Doing restoration on this type of project is less labor
intensive which means overall cost is less too !

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.

Ford Police Interceptors dominate Michigan State Police testing

Tue, Nov 1 2016

Once again, Ford Motor Company builds the fastest police vehicles. The Blue Oval touted the news in an official release following Michigan State Police and Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department testing. Ford did very well. Except for one acceleration metric – zero to 10 miles per hour Â– the Blue Oval's Taurus and Explorer-based cop cars were the quickest, with particular praise coming for the EcoBoost-powered models, which bested Chevrolet and Dodge's V8-powered variants. Dearborn's products also posted the fastest average times around MSP's vehicle dynamics course. But it wasn't all positive for Ford. The only four-cylinder in the contest, the 2.0-liter, EcoBoost Ford SSP Sedan, had both the lowest top speed, 120 mph, and the slowest acceleration figures. It was also the slowest in track testing. Ford's products also failed to match the braking and top speeds of its rivals from Detroit and Auburn Hills Â– the rear-drive Charger Pursuit posted the best braking stats of the entire test, while the V8-powered Chevrolet Caprice hit the highest top speed, at 155 mph. Ford did score a top speed award, among SUVs, but at 132 mph, the naturally aspirated Police Interceptor Utility had to share its award with the equally fast, rear-drive Chevrolet Tahoe. The LA County Sheriff's timing isn't publicly available, but according to Ford, the EcoBoost-powered police cars put on a similarly impressive show for cops on the West Coast. We've assembled a spreadsheet on Google Docs that offers an easy to browse comparison of the different stats assembled by the Michigan State Police, and divided the vehicles between standard V6-powered sedans, high-performance sedans (EcoBoost and V8 models), and SUVs. You can check it out here. Related Video:

Toyota again claims Corolla outsold Focus worldwide

Wed, 10 Apr 2013

Toyota isn't convinced the Ford Focus was the best-selling nameplate globally last year. Bloomberg reports that for the second time in seven months, both Toyota and Ford are laying claim to the title. Ford cites R.L. Polk & Co. data that says the automaker moved some 1.02 million Focus models in 2012 compared to just 872,774 Toyota Corolla units. But Toyota says the actual figure is closer to 1.16 million Corolla models.
Last year, Ford said it took the sales crown through the fist half of 2012 based on information from IHS Automotive, but Toyota pointed out those numbers left out models like the Corolla-based Matrix and Auris, as well as the Corolla Fielder and Scion xB-based Corolla Rumion. Whether or not Toyota's belief that all these cars should be counted in the Corolla bucket is accurate or not is seemingly up for debate... as is the question of why it matters so much to both parties.
This time around, Ford is holding the line that the Focus is the "best-selling nameplate," with Erich Merkle, a US sales analyst with Ford saying the company's figure is, "a pure number that is verified by a third party." Toyota, meanwhile, has requested clarification from Polk.

Ford demonstrates Mustang's new Line Lock burnout feature

Tue, 22 Apr 2014

Been saving your pennies for a 2015 Ford Mustang? Put in a few extra shifts or some overtime? Got a great down payment ready? Well, however much you saved for your new pony car, start saving more - you'll need the extra money to spend on tires.
That's because the Mustang will come with a system called Line Lock, which can lock the front brakes electronically, allowing drivers to perform big, dumb, smoky burnouts without moving so much as an inch. It's sort of like launch control, only the average driver might actually use it.
Now, line locks aren't uncommon, particularly in drag racing. Usually, a flip of the switch locks the front brakes. The Mustang, besides offering the system from the factory which is unique in and of itself, looks a bit more involved.
