1965 Ford Econoline Pickup E100

1965 Ford Other Pickups

The first Ford Econoline, introducedfor the 1961 model year, was based on the Ford Falcon-avehicle that also underpinned the Ford Mustang. TheEcononline was built to compete with the Chevrolet CorvairVan, the Volkswagen Type 2, the Jeep Forward Control, andlater the Dodge A100. Originally offered as a cargo van oras an eight-passenger van with three rows of seats, the FordEconoline was also offered as a pickup truck, as seenhere. The first E.Series sported a flat nose with an inlinesix-cylinder engine between and behind the frontseats. Early models had a 144 CID 6-cylinder engine with athree-speed manual transmission. This truck has a refreshed170 CID with 3 speed manual transmission and new clutch. Whatmakes this 1965 Ford Econoline special is its simplicity. Itseems so utilitarian, so spartan, yet at the same time haspotential as an eye-catching vehicle. We couldn't help butwonder "How often does the average person see one of theseearly Econoline's, if ever in 2017"? That uncommonnesscombined with this particular vehicle's originality, is whatmade us consider the potential for this truck to be arestoration candidate or even a hot rod of sorts, which madeus like it even more. At the time of writing this article,there were five total Econoline's of this 1961-1967generation for sale on eBay Motors. As you can imagine ofthose five, some were modified into hot rods and some wererusted away almost beyond recognition. This was a desert truck I retrieved from Arizona. This was and still isan unfinished project for me. I love this truck and onlyselling due to illness. The vehicle comes thousands $ inextra parts OEM NOS to finish and is matching numbers. Ihave owned this truck for about 5 years now and has beengaraged. I have amassed a number of NOS and OEM parts thatwill be included in the sale. This truck also has a newinterior, headliner, brakes and tires. Truck also retains the original tailgate.
