Hey there everyone! I've been lurking in the forums for a while, and figured I would finally officially say hello! I'm Eli, from Baton Rouge Louisiana. I purchased my van (Clifford) back in August, but just finally got him running. He's a 1970 Ford Econoline 200 with a 302 and a manual 4 speed transmission. He's been in Louisiana pretty much his entire life and is in good shape, all things considered.
I'm trying to get him ready for a road trip up to Eureka Springs in May, and then after that, on to road tripping the rest of the US! I've already gotten a ton of great info from the forums, so thanks for all you've contributed to my journey. This is actually my first "automotive project" and I'm excited to learn a little bit of everything.
Also, if you are in Louisiana/South US, and in a Club, I would love to hear from you! There don't seem to be too many of us down here.
Welcome to the site Eli ... NICE RIDE and a good color !
