A deep Burgundy would look nice or Desert Turquoise green. That's a Mopar color, but very nice nonetheless.

If you want to sell a vehicle paint it red.
If you want to show off the body work, paint it black!
White hides alot. Looks great in the night under street lights.
Dark Green does not show the dirt as much as other colors.

What color are the seats? Interior? Pics?

Artwork? hmmmm... personal touch here that may not be everyone taste. Better to put in a 3pt seat belt?


2014 and no more Econolines made... market blunder. The last new 2014 econoline to go to a vanner - DEADLAST
How many mid ford vans can 1 man own? Don't ask stupid questions...
My chopped mid ford will be painted black till they make a darker color.
Grind to Grind... Hot metal will abound the land... IceAge II 'The MeltDown'
My 3D printer will produce a life size 1969 mid ford in 2031... Wait and see...

White always can be a great base to start with,stands out in a crowd not to mention its allot cooler in the summer.

Seeing as how this van is getting built for resale keep it as simple/cost effective as you can........

This is one of the sweetest white Econos out there

White also makes a great "base" for mural work

I'm wondering if I should write a blog about my '71 Chevy van project? When I get around to start late summer in Aug/Sept, I'd be taking lots of pictures from beginning to finish. The project would take me maybe half a year to last. I've almost gotten all the parts I need.

I still have yet to find a nice set of wheels - preferlly 50" in rear and 60" front and vintage slotted mags. Gonna take me while to look for these mags around here.

Should it be good enough for Van-in project, hm?

Yes. Please do. It's really simple to start one, and make sure to put a link in your signature so we can find it easily.
