Vehicle Detail

Putting my baby up for auction.. the only person who will miss her more than me is my 2 year old son who just loves going for rides in daddy's "bus". Ill try to cover as much information as I can below, please feel free to contact with any questions. For anyone looking for one of these, this model has all the right parts.. the big 240 straight 6, HD rear axle, correct spring special side trim and is mostly original other than components that have been updated for improved reliability. I have owned this car for 1 year and have put a little over 5000 miles on it taking it to work, cruise nights, shows at the diner, home depot runs... just about anywhere as long as the weather was nice. There are few vintage cars that can be daily driven.. this is definitely one of them. 1965 Ford Econoline Vin: 3E10JH714283 Drivetrain: 240 cid inline 6, biggest engine offered in this model3 speed manual transmission with column shift "3 on the tree"HD rear differentialEngine, transmission, and rear axle fully rebuilt in late 90's with less than 20k miles since restorationNew fuel pump and rebuilt carb installed 2014New Radiator and heater hosesFlowmaster muffler with turndown Suspension, steering, brakes:Custom drop axle in the front with leafsprings and shocksFlipped rear axle with correct spring saddlesPerfect lowered stance and a smooth rideFully rebuilt steering cruises dead straight with no bump steer4 wheel drums with new lines and rebuilt master cylinder Interior:Original seats with new vinyl upholsteryPainted dash with added autometer tach and vintage oil pressure gaugeFloor and engine cover finished in tough truck bed linerNew door seals and engine cover seals installed 2014New heater core and hoses installed 2014 Body:Mostly rust free, never undercoated and extremely straight considering this truck spent most of its life hauling things around. Single stage wimbledon white paint is >20 yrs old and has few runs and chips. Car is a solid 10 footer but far from a show car finishTailgate converted to pullout and flush mount with custom rear roll pansmall crack in left rear corner of roll pan. New sheet metal will be included to patch this area.All new glass seals installed for windshield, back window and quarter windows. This car starts and runs great, steering is better than any other vintage econoline I have ever driven and she's happy to cruise at 80+ on the highway. The column shifter is notchy and accurate like an old bolt action rifle and the brakes and clutch are so easy to use that my wife will occasionally borrow the truck for a grocery run. This car also includes 3 point seat belts and a set of 8 ball door locks to match the 8 ball shift knob. The heater blows nice and hot so you can drive it in the winter and thanks to plenty of ventilation you can enjoy the car all summer long. I've spend a lot of time and money weeding out failing parts and interior rattles.. now this truck is ready to find a new home where it can be enjoyed as much as it was in ours. $500 paypal deposit due with 72hrs of auction close. Balance via bank transfer or cash only. Will assist with shipping anywhere in the USA after full payment has been made. Clean NJ title in hand.
