It would save on gas.I wouldn't drive it to a show since it can't tow another van on a trailer.I'd have to use a 4x4 and put this one on a trailer.

I'd have to take the rack off.Do you think it would look better with the rack or with a spoiler?

nICE! I like the glory grill... I like the top spoiler best.
Good luck with it.

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...

I would keep the visor that's on now. Because I like the way it looks on these vans and it's vintage. Those Lunds don't do anything for me.

I think the spoilers look better than the roof rack but I find it's a bit... tacky. I still like them but who are we kidding? Spoilers on a van? Are we really going to drive that fast? Still, one or the other helps to balance the proportions of these LWB Fords.

The main thing that "bothers" me on that van is the red marker lights on the roof rack. I would keep the rest as is!

But that's my opinion and it's your van so you can do whatever you want with it! Have fun with your new toy!

Nice van..I wanted it just for the grille..I'd say keep the visor you have & add the 3 pc Cal Wing(whether you drive fast or not doesn't matter),it looks good sitting still.
I used to put roof racks on all my vans but now I have taken them off my my last 3 Astro/safari's.

I have a Cal-look wing on my 85 and like the way it looks. Can you still buy those?
