Looks like a good one to go vanning in!
back
cool and yepp season cant come fast enuff..
Nice to see some pics of this one too.
Did you paint the dash white or did it actually come in white?
Hi!everyone. I was thinking of paint, but I dint think it would look good ,so I got some vynole
and coverd it . doing the bottom haf in black, the top of the doors white and the bottom black,
the headliner in black . Trying to keep that black an white thime.
Cool! Can't wait to see more!
Looks good. Nice to see some of the newer models customized as well.
Glad to see you will be attending some runs this year. Are you going to show this van too?
Or Just use it to get there.
Nice looking work!!!!

put on the snow tires and painted the rims
just playing with a choping job
that would be sweet
Is there a chopper in the house...
...come on now there gotta be somebody out there chopping vans that can help this guy out...ANYBODY ???
I can seriously see that happening and looking real good.
That would look real sweet!
I would allso add 6" on each side and call it F-F-F- frikin fat ford
Its my wish.
just playing with a choping job
That would be wild! I don't think I have ever seen a late model ford chopped.
Van looks great! What happened to the ying yang on the back?
Chopping one of these would be a major job. The bodies have so many curves to them that it would take a lot of extra 'stretching' of metal, plus the glass is all tempered so it would be difficult to cut.
I'd take on the challenge though if you got the cash!
Hi! Ken. its better plain, don't like to advertise.
as far as choppin it looks good on paper , but your right it be hell to do.
she runs good ill leave it alone.
thinking of redoing the dash tis material is all craking from the sun
so im doing this with better material
just got to remember wher I put this one.
I really like the pinstriping on your van. Did you do it? Any closer pics?
Yes, the pinstripin is vinel tape. when the weather gets warmer I am going to paint it on. I'll get close up pics then.
this is the closes I have
i like it, its there but its not..
TA TA TAAA TA TA TAAA-- YES TAPS ARE BEING PLAYED
BECAUSE THIS FORD IS FOUND ON ROAD DEAD. WELL I GOT IT HOME.
IT LOST #1 CYL- NO COMPRESION . THAT SUCKS.
THIS MEANS THAT I CANT DO ANY TRUCKIN THIS YEAR. THAT MY FREINDS
SUCKS EVEN WERS... IT'S TIME TO SAY GOOD BY TO THIS SHORT
RUNINN VAN
Sorry to that,can't pick up a cheap motor somwhere.
Sorry to hear this,What eng 5.4?
Its a v6 and i have no way to be able to swap motors . Im going to part it out.
now I have no choice but to get the 73 on the road the money i make on this is going to the 73
and it died a virgin. DAG MAN
Man that's sad I love that Van
Sorry to hear that Rizz. I remember when the 318 in my 85 blew up on the way to work one morning. Scared the bejesus outta me!
What about selling it whole? You might make as much or more with no effort taking it apart. Just a thought.
Real bummer man sorry to hear.
Sorry to hear ...that sucks...if you decide to part out send me a note-lotta parts will fit my 97...will make it live on with transplanted parts.
Sorry to hear it
I always liked this van.
what year was the yin yang van and how many miles on it?
Sorry to hear that buddy. If it does get parted, I would be interested in the rear shell. All I need is the body shell. Would almost hate to see it parted though.
Rizzman,sorry to hear this unfortunate news.......
.......Wookee

just a idea how much to fix what is wrong with it. Not a lot of mileage on this one. I had mine engine replaced at 238,000 with a 5.4 from a 5.0. But when i replaced that i went all the way and turned this van into a full custom from a street custom. Still waiting to see the final outcome. I dorpped the van off in October and been told it would be ready my mid May. Keeping my fingers cross. I will be at the Ford Nationals in Carlisle with this van. Anyway try to sell it whole before parting it out.
