Well, as a lot of you know, I bought my new van from Reed, and except for a problem on the road getting home, we love it so far !
If you don’t know, it is a 1989 Ford E-150 conversion van, with a FI 351W, C6, and 3.55 geared 9” rear. It gets about 10 mpg city, 12mpg highway.
We have decided we are doing kind of a cabin-ish theme to the interior, and are going to name her.....WOLF DEN II .
The van has a three piece rear bench/bed that will most likely stay, but the middle seats will be removed and a “galley” behind the driver seat. That will have a three burner stove/oven from a travel trailer I have, a spot for a cooler, and some storage for dry/can goods. It MIGHT get a sink too, but not sure on that yet.
At some point it will be repainted white with some kind of blue stripes, and will get either Ansen style slots, or Cragar SS wheels.
Any way, that is the plans...now to figure out how to get the money to do them ! Lol

Happy it went to a good home. The trip back to Fester's house was an adventure, for sure.


Windows- they're what make a van worth owning!
