1975 Ford Econoline 100 death wagon


Recommended Posts

My most recent project.

A 1975 Ford (Might I add AMERICAN MADE ford, not "insert country here") Econoline 100 "Supervan"

The "smallest" of the Econolines.

302 5.0

3 on the tree

9 inch rear positraction

130k miles

More thrills than necessary

This thing was scary to drive. This is what I learned to drive stick in. Hard to steer, hard to stop, easy to go hella fast.

Didn't do much to it. Rebuilt the carb. Fuel pump went out on me- 14$ for the pump, 25 minutes to go get it, 10 to change it out. America used to make pretty decent stuff believe it or not.

Gave it what I think was a killer paint job. The blue was a custom mix I named Sunday Gulf.
