I am selling my 1972 Ford Econoline E-200. Moving forces sale. This is a barn find van that I found in the mountains of Virginia last summer. The mileage is unknown. I listed what is on the odometer. This van is an unmolested, totally original as ordered van. And yes it was a special order. It is an E200 with E-300 axles and springs and 8 lug wheels. It has factory air. I was told it worked when put in storage in 1996. I am the third owner. The first owner purchased it to haul mule teams to competition. The second owners used it for flea market duty. The color blue while now faded was a special color. It is optioned out like a Chateau model on the inside, but is bare bones and void of chrome on the outside. It is a long wheelbase Super Van. It runs excellent, starts on the first try and purrs. The transmission works but hesitates when first put in gear. I am in the process of replacing the master cylinder, front wheel cylinders and front brake hoses, because while it will get up and go, it will not stop unless you use the emergency brake. Right now everything works on it except the brakes and I don't know about the air conditioner. Tires hold air but are dry rotted. Have all 4 hubcaps.All glass is good but the windshield seal will need to be replaced eventually as it leaks. Has no seats in the back. No rust on the underside except the usual light underside surface rust. One rust hole in right rear quarter.
Interior and engine photos to follow on 27 February.
This van is as factory original as you will get. Everything is in its original place. No jury rigged repairs. If you wanted to know what one looked like from the factory under the engine cover and hood, this is it. This van was purchased and stayed within 50 miles of its purchase loaction its entire life until I brought it to Yorktown. The two bright blue photos were taken after it was washed. The dark discoloration on the right rear corner was mildew.
Please ask questions before bidding. This van is sold as is, where is with no warranties expressed or implied. If you have less than ten (10) feedbacks, contact me before bidding or I will cancel your bid.
On Feb-27-13 at 04:45:44 PST, seller added the following information:
This van was purchased to use as a tow vehicle for camping. Unfortunately I am moving a distance that would be cost prohibitive to ship at this time. I will be adding a photo of the stamped VIN # along with interior and engine photos later today, 27 February.
Also the roof was coated with a white paint. I believe it is mobile home roof coating. It has preserved the roof well but for some reason a particulat type of algae likes it and those are what the spots are on the roof. It is not rust, although there is some very light surface rust on the roof.
If anyone would like specific photos, let me know and I will add them during the course of the auction. If there are local buyers I am available to show the van.

Ford 3D-printing Mustang out of chocolate and candy for Valentine's Day
Thu, 13 Feb 2014Is your beloved in love with the new 2015 Ford Mustang? Do they like chocolate (that's a trick question - everyone likes chocolate)? Are they a bit of a futurist? Then this Hallmark holiday, you need to get them this Ford Mustang, 3D-printed in sweet, delicious chocolate.
Ford is teaming with 3D Systems' Sugar Lab in LA to produce the super-accurate pony car confections in both chocolate and sugar candy varieties. The process kicked off with a CAD rendering of the 2015 Mustang, which was then programmed into the 3D printer. After a bit of work from the machine, a four-inch long, two-inch tall Mustang was the result. Why the tieup with 3D Systems, though?
"We wanted to create something fun to show that while 3D printing made these edible Mustangs, manufacturing-level 3D printing was used in the development of Ford's all-new sports car," said Paul Susalla, Ford's supervisor of 3D printing.
2016 Ford Mustang GT bringing back hood turn signals
Sat, May 9 2015The 2016 Ford Mustang is being teased again, this time with a short video. And what you're looking at here is a nod back to Mustangs of the 1960s. Ford is bringing back a hood with turn signals in the vents. In 1967, Ford offered an optional hood on the Mustang with two heat extraction vents that faced the windscreen. Inside those vents were amber turn signals, so, you know, drivers could see their own blinkers blinking. A novelty feature, sure, but a nice historical cue that Ford is bringing back for its updated 2016 'Stang. We also know that Ford will offer a California Special pack on the 2016 Mustang GT. Beyond that, we don't expect too many more changes, seeing as how the Mustang was just completely redesigned for 2015. Stay tuned for the full details on Monday, May 11. Related Video:
Ford Police Interceptor with 2.0L EcoBoost rated most fuel-efficient police sedan
Tue, 26 Nov 2013Back in September, Ford announced a non-pursuit version of its Police Interceptor Sedan, which swaps out a choice of two V6 engines for a fuel-efficient 2.0-liter EcoBoost inline four-cylinder. This Special Service Police Sedan will be marketed to law enforcement agencies looking to cut fuel costs and don't need the extra power.
For college campuses, detectives and the like, this new police car has now been certified with EPA fuel economy estimates of 20 miles per gallon in the city, 32 mpg on the highway and a combined rating of 24 mpg. These figures represent a decrease of two mpg in city and combined ratings compared to the civilian-spec 2014 Taurus. These police cars still offer active grille shutters for better aerodynamics, although we're guessing agencies upfitting their cars with light bars and push bumpers aren't exactly concerted with aerodynamics. The true benefit of the SSP version is when it's compared against other police sedan options like the Dodge Charger, Chevy Impala, Chevy Caprice and even the V6 Police Interceptor Sedan.
Ford claims the new Police Interceptor Sedan SSP is the most fuel-efficient current option for police departments, saying that this car can save $1,720 per car over three years and almost $260,000 over the same span of time for fleets with 150 vehicles. There is an official press release posted below, and also check out the gallery of images from Ford collected from various police agencies across the US (although none show the 2.0-liter SSP model). Head on over to Ford's Police Interceptor mini-site for even more pictures of the Police Interceptor Sedan and Utility.
