1974 Ford Econoline E-100 in original, unrestored condition. Factory 302 V8, Automatic Trans, factory Power Steering, factory A/C. This E100 is in running and driving condition but it has spent more time sitting than driving since the 1990s. Odometer reads 27000. I believe that 127000 is correct but I have no written proof supporting that. The engine starts up easy and runs well although the alternator light flickers when idling. The power steering system works but does leaks a small puddle after its parked. It may be leaking while driving as well. The leak appears to be from one of the power steering hoses but the leak could be coming from elsewhere. The factory a/c system is complete up to the discharge vent on the bulkhead behind the driver seat and seems to just barely blow cold. The non-power brakes work well and the drums have very little miles on them. The previous owner stated the transmission and brakes were rebuilt less than 500 miles ago but I have no written proof of that. The trans case looks clean as if it were rebuilt recently and it does shifts well. It has a very nicely made dual exhaust system that sounds good. Tires hold air and have tread but are older and should be replaced before regular use. All instruments work except for the gas gauge which was working when I bought it. Most of the lights, heater, wipers all work. Ignition and all exterior locks work with the same key. The windshield has a significant crack in it and will need to be replaced. This van will need a thorough examination of all systems before it should be used as everyday driver. That being said I recommend that the van should be trailered or shipped. The body is fairly straight for a 40 year old van but it does have minor dents, scratches and some very light surface rust. Paint is older but not original. It has some body damage around the right rear tail light area. This van was converted into a camper in 1970s by the original owner. For sanitary reasons I have removed all of the old paneling, carpet and insulation and high pressure washed the interior. Due to being a camper it does have many small holes on the inside framing of the van from screws used to attach the paneling and some light adhesive residue from the insulation material behind the paneling. It also had a vent in the roof at one point which has been removed. A patch was made using the roof of another van and it was welded in place. It could use more finish grinding on the welded bead to be flush and some professional hammer and dolly work to be perfect but since it is not visible from the ground it has not been done. It was painted with a closely matching color on the outside and black body sealer inside. Despite the description above this van would make an excellent candidate for a full or partial restoration. It is uncommon to find one these 2nd generation panel vans in a condition that is similar to how they came from the factory i.e. not cut up, customized or driven into the ground. It has a very desirable option package not normally found in an E100s that makes driving it more hospitable. I bought this van to restore at a later time but I have come across another project I am more interested in so I am selling a few of my vehicles. This van is being sold as is, where is with no warranty written, expressed or implied. It is the buyers responsibility to perform all due diligence before bidding. It has a clear Oregon title in my name. I will not accept Paypal for payment. I will accept cash in hand at pickup or a cashiers check from a certified bank mailed in advance to allow time for funds to clear. Funds must clear before the van leaves my possession. I will willing to hold the van for up to a month after the auction has closed if that will help you. Once again, NO PAYPAL! The van is also for sale locally and I reserve the right to end the auction at anytime. Please contact me via ebay if you have any questions or would pictures of something specific. |

Detroit 3 and UAW could create healthcare pool
Thu, Sep 3 2015Healthcare costs continue to multiply in the US with no clear end in sight, but the United Auto Workers and the Big Three are negotiating a way to rapid growth under control. As part of the latest contract talks, the union has an idea to create a healthcare pool across all of its members at Ford, General Motors, and FCA US. If accepted, the company-wide integration would spread out the expenses and create a massive member base for bargaining with insurance companies. Both Ford and GM are at least considering the proposal, according to The Detroit News, and FCA US might be on board, as well. The idea is the work of current UAW president Dennis Williams and is based on the similar pool for the Voluntary Employee Beneficiary Association for retirees. "I've walked through this several ways; I just don't have any other answer," Williams said to The Detroit News. "I do believe this will work. It's worked with the VEBA." Williams was elected UAW president last year and won by an overwhelming margin. He vowed no more concessions to automakers. In addition to healthcare, the two-tier wage system is another major talking point in the contract negotiation because it gives fewer benefits to entry-level workers. Higher wages are also a request. Healthcare costs are a massive expense for automakers and are expected to reach over $2 billion this year, according to The Detroit News. The payments are up nearly 50 percent or more in just the last four years.
Ford recalls 1.48 million F-150s for transmission, plus other models
Wed, Feb 13 2019Weeks after recalling more than 800,000 F-Series pickup trucks for a fire risk, Ford has issued another separate recall for approximately 1.48 million 2011-2013 F-150s for a transmission fault. The six-speed automatics could unexpectedly downshift into first gear without warning. Ford and Lincoln tangentially issued much smaller recalls for the Mustang, Continental, Nautilus, and Navigator. According to Ford, some 2011-2013 model year F-150 pickups with six-speed automatic transmissions could "experience an intermittent loss of the transmission output speed sensor signal to the powertrain control module." This could potentially cause the trucks to temporarily downshift, which could be dangerous if it occurs while driving. Of the 1.48 million affected trucks, 1.26 million are in the U.S. while 221,000 are in Canada. Thus far, Ford knows of five reported accidents involving the issue. To remedy the problem, owners can take their trucks to dealers to update the power control module software. Ford also issued recalls for about 4,350 2019 Mustangs, Lincoln Nautiluses, and Lincoln Navigators in the U.S. and Canada due to a possible fault with the instrument clusters. Although there have been no reports of accidents, Ford says the instrument panel clusters assemblies might be blank or not turn out when the vehicle is started. Additionally, Ford issued a third recall for 28,200 2017-2019 Lincoln Continentals in the U.S. and Canada. Ford says silicon contamination might build up inside the door latch motor, causing it to malfunction. As a result, the door latch might not always fully engage, and the doors could possibly open unexpectedly. Despite no reports of accidents, Ford will remove and replace door latch assemblies on all doors for those affected by the defect. If any of these apply to a vehicle you own, contact Ford to discuss whether it is included in any of these recalls and have the vehicle checked out at a Ford dealership.
