A while back I traded off my beloved 2nd gen E100 for much needed Money

Yesterday the Econoline gods blessed me with a great example of a 63 Standard Station Bus!
I've been grinding on my alarm guy for 5 years on this one. He got it from the orig owner with a huge stack of papers from day one.
It runs so good. I'm so stoked
Gotta take a crash course on 1st gen parts like window rubber..Any advice appreciated!

The diehard Early Econo guys have their own forums and clubs online. Start surfing the web for 'em they are "different".... grin
But in a good way. They help each other a lot. Look for Falcon vans as well.
They have their own yearly get together every year (somewhere in Arkansas I think).

BTW That's a nice unmolested Econoline! That uncut dash looks great!

Welcome back. Nice van. My Dad's first van was very similar to yours. I love that body style.

Great rig, what part of Sacramento are you in? My friend and I live over in Carmichael and he has a first gen Ford also.


You hear the thunder of stampeding rhinos, elephants and tacky tigers
This town ain't big enough for the both of us
And it ain't me who's gonna leave

Welcome back; I agree with Catfish; that dash is awesome ( hope you don't cut it; build a console )
