Have a 1978 Econoline E250 van I need to get rid of. We toured with this van for two years, so it's set up for four in the front, gear in the back. It's rock solid, handles a full load of gear with no problems, and runs pretty damn good. Thing is, it hasn't been on the road for 2+ years. I start it up every few months, take it for a drive around the block, but other than that it has been collecting spider webs.

So, needs a real thorough cleaning (I mean thorough...). Also, it needs a stereo as I pilfered the last one for my new(er) truck. It needs windshield wipers (no idea what happened to those) and an oil change would probably not hurt.

Whats good is the engine is a solid 350 with an edelbrock performer intake and matching carb. The coil / plugs / wires were replaced shortly before I decommissioned the thing. The starter is newish, along with the battery. The tires have maybe 15000k on them, but good tread all seasons, new in 06 from Canadian Tire. The muffler is same vintage FlowMaster. Body is in decent shape (bit of rust here and there, nothing crazy).

If I didn't have to get rid of it I probably wouldn't, but my wife and my new yard don't exactly allow me to keep it. But, honestly, if we were heading out on the road tomorrow, I would not hesitate to take it cross Canada again.

So... If you need a van, give me an email. I'm asking $600 for it, but I have to move this ASAP, so tell me your storey and make me an offer.

Pics are attached, I have more if you want to see it. - Sun, 17 Oct 2010 5:31pm
