    Getting out of the back 40

    I have to admit I bought mine in pretty decent condition besides some rust holes along the rear fenders and it was also driveable. THough I think the first thing to do is to get it cleaned out and see what you have to work with.
    I also am not sure what to do with the anything from behind the driver seat other than use it to haul my Scuba gear around and maybe go to a drive-in hmm... but I digress.
    I think after cleaning it up you can get an Idea of how far you want to go, or how far you have to go .

    Ken, my interior is still in progress but here is a couple of pics but they don't show much. I see different panels that have been done a lot of ways in the back. Most of them I don't like. Lots of paneling or upholstery that look more like the Love Van from the 70's show. Brian

    You would have hated my '66 Econoline then!

    Thanks for the pics Brian. That's bare bones and beautiful, as far as I'm concerned!

    Speaking of the Love Van from the '70's!:D I had a '66 F*rd Econoline with paneling on the sides, curtains on the windows, 2-tone shag carpeting, and a kick ass 8-track with 4 speakers in the early '70's. Chrome slotted wheels and the "Keep on Truckin" dudes on the outside panels! WHAT A CHICK MAGNET! Powder blue and white! Gotta find a picture to share with you guys! Did I mention it had matching bean bags in the back?;)
