It's that 9 months of winter they have for 'project time'


Looks great, I wouldn't shorten it, not only for visual but for structural integrity.

Do you still have the pc? You would be surprised at what you can pulled off a pc even though you think it dead. Even stuff you delete is sometimes still there... just the index (think of this as the address to your home) is removed... but your file still exists (think of this as your house). Worth looking into...


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.

My 3D printer will produce a life size 1969 mid ford in 2031... Wait and see...

Thanks for that Ken, since I've been re-energized I've been able to look at what I've created so far, and yeah it is "sweet looking"... I'm not sure what the height is at this point, but my goal is after the 3" body drop & 3" suspension drop to be under the 4' high mark...

Thanks for that... I'm going to shorten it for one reason & one reason only, this whole van has been built from the sketch that I drew, it has been the whole driving force... With such a radical drop in roof height it has made the van look like a LWB, not what I was after...
