1981 Ford E350 4x4 van with strong 460 engine and C6 transmission. According to the previous owner the engine was rebuilt a few years back and it runs strong with Edlebrock intake and 1406 600cfm carburetor. The transmission shifts great and 4x4 works great also. Front A/C has been converted to newer R134 compressor and works very well (no rear A/C). Front seats are in very good shape and it has one 3 seat bench (none are original). Dual tanks with electric fuel pump and 3 way valve, fuel pressure regulator at carb, and Edlebrock fuel/air ratio meter. Aftermarket oil pressure gauge and coolant temp gauge. Slight rock damage between passenger rear tire and 3rd door. Solid body and frame - surface rust only from what I can tell - paint works. I have driven the van on the freeway and around town - it drives very well, lots of power, and sounds great. The roof rack is stout, works as it should, and has an rv ladder on the rear door for access (lights on roof rack not wired in). All lights and turn signals work as they should. Previous owner attempted to panel the van interior and it needs redone/finished but works and is better than nothing. All the glass is good, vent windows open/close as they should. The tires are good. I wouldn't hesitate to drive this rig across the country right now. This is a running/driving project expedition, zombie apocalypse, bug-out rig and it's priced right. I recently purchased this to pull a travel trailer with my family of 8 but never got the chance because we came across a newer diesel model and are going to let this one go. Below are a few things that I would do to van if I kept it: replace front shocks, fix minor engine oil leaks, no return line to rear gas tank - need to install 6 port valve for switching of tanks, go back to mechanical high flow fuel pump because I like them, install new radiator because it came with the van (haven't found a leak yet), adjust some of the doors (all work but could close tighter), customize interior as desired. .
