1964 Ford E-Series Van Description

Crazy Cool Custom 1964 Ford E100 Truck known as Spectrta-1 back in the day. Tons of custom mods, Has won many shows and been in a couple magazines is what i've heard from a few cars guys. Ford 283 engine, fires up with gas in the carb, runs good but doesn't idle, I think it just needs a tune up. It still has the old points, plugs, wires etc from many moons ago, so i'm assuming it will run after a tune, etc. That is why Im selling it as a project. Amazing original condition but does need some work, just had carb professionally rebuilt, cleaned out fuel tank, Auto trans rebuilt and painted, Over size Ford rear end, custom interior in great shape for the age. It's all there just needs some love.
I was able to track down the original builder, he lives in L.A. Really cool guy, he told me about the build etc.

The truck has a custom shell that makes it look like a van. It has Hydraulic rams that lift the entire shell about 12" in the air, so when you hanging out, its like a canopy in the up position. It also make's it easy to remove the shell. The top also is removable and so is the interior, so you can use it as a truck if you want. It has a old school TV and a custom velvet red sofa with cup holders, red deep shag carpet etc, custom split Gull Wing style door, top half goes up, Lower one folds down and acts as a step with custom lighting in the foot steps.
Really too much to list, custom Grill with headlight covers, custom visor, custom molded Flares and side rockers, custom door handles, custom tail lights, etc
All glass is in excellent shape.
Interior cab window section behind driver lifts up into rear area, two sunroofs, one in cab and one in rear area (both need some restoration, cables etc). This thing was ahead of its time, originally built in the 70's. It has a light bar under the dash that would change color as the music played. Beautiful custom metal console that has cup holders that fold down, it also houses the switches for interior lights etc and features a photo of the van etched in the center. Orig gauges plus some aftermarket gauges, chrome trim parts, custom door pulls, orig custom steering wheel.
Its all there! Killer project to finish.
I would really like to see someone bring it back, its apiece ofhistory.
There is a video that shows the truck in its prime, you can see it a few times with the top up etc.
REVISED!! sorry about that you tube 2007 Econoline meet this video shows the truck a few times

There is a crack on the uni body underneath from the originalowner doing wheelies(lol).
He said he drove it for 15 years the way it is. I had a couple good metal guys look at it and both quoted me $350 to build a custom u shaped brace and to make it perfect.

Crager SS's in rear and orig Rockets in front, tires in good shape.
Hate to sell but I've started construction on my house and have no room.
Let me know if you have any questions.
