1966 Ford Econoline E-Series Van Camper 300ci

This is a 1966 Ford Econoline Supervan with the Extended 90 inch wheelbase and heavy duty undercarriage upgrade. The van has a fiberglass Cam-Pact high top. Yes this is a factory feature- A truly rare upgrade that I doubt you will be able to find another example of still out there today, if you were to try. The fiberglass high top was manufactured by Cam-Pact out of Nokomis,Florida. Cam-Pact manufactured fiberglass camper tops and teardrop trailers in the 1960’s.
The van was manufactured in Lorain, Ohio in March 1966.
The odometer shows 11,750 miles
Less than 200 miles on the new 300ci 4.9L motor
Mechanical features:
The van was recently upgraded from a 240ci to a brand new 300ci 4.9L six-cylinder motor that has a 7 YEAR WARRANTY. Yes thats SEVEN years. There are 6 years and 10 months remaining on this transferrable warranty.
The Ford 300 inline-six is one of the most durable and reliable Ford motors ever created. It is a favorite among enthusiasts and is a part of American truck culture. Those who have owned a Ford 300 know that it’s legendary due to its durability, impressive torque outputs, simplicity of design, and longevity. Simply put, they’re just hard to break. Used in tractors, UPS vehicles, dump trucks, and in this case, a classic one of a kind van.
It has a single barrel carburetor and a C4 3-speed automatic transmission. The automatic transmission is another factory upgraded feature of this van that contributes to its rarity.
