Long before the Caravan added the driver’s side rear door…

There was this.  Have you been looking for a kid hauler with a manual trans?  This could be it.

This is the 8-door version of the 60s Ford Econoline.  Given the condition, I’m sure you can’t wait to throw your kids into this one.  Who needs seats or the LATCH system, anyway?

In truth, this could be easily fixable and would be a cool parts hauler. You could load/unload an engine from either side, which is cool.  Also, you could reenact that minivan ad with the skier flying through the van – just don’t count on power doors here.  So, it’s a fixer that ran nine years ago. Is that worth anywhere near $3K to you?

Yeah, it’s a little rough.

Note similar doors on this side.

Bumper schmumper.

This is pure 60s van luxury, just like Scooby Doo and friends enjoyed.  For those not familiar – yes, the engine is between the front seats for easy repairs while on the move.

Anything you can imagine is possible back here.

240 cubic inches and 150 horses of straight six goodness!
