I'm digging it!! And the transmission gear whine sounds more heavy duty than the Falcon and Mustang 3 speeds. Transmission definitely fits the van's purpose.
Very nice ride you've given us! Lol! I have a 62' and am lookin forward to it as a year or so easy-going project. 😏 first step was rat-shit and crack-pipe removal. Lol!
@@MisterMikeTexas, Definitely didn't go hug my girlfriend right afterwards. Lol Mine has the 170cid which is cool.. I guess.. hah Kept asking the fella that had it to sell it to me. He donated it to the 'Wheels of Time' auto museum in Peoria Illinois when he died, among a lot of cool stuff he had. I contacted that gal running that place, out of season. She asked what I wanted to offer them and I said "How's zero grab yah? And she said "Although that's a compelling offer, how would you feel about a couple hundred bucks donation to 'The Wheels of Time'!? Lol! I said that's cool we made the deal and she gave me a couple admission tickets in for the price. Hah!
I had a few Dodge A-100 vans and a couple of A-108 vans. I really miss my one 69 A-108...had a 318 V8 and 727 auto trans. Used it as a daily driver for years.
Slap on a large vinyl Mystery Machine wrap with orange hubcaps and you got yourself a scooby doo van...that kicks ass...did you end up selling it yet ?
Put some oil on that gear shift selector. You're killing me. I grew up riding and driving one of these. Dad bought one new in 1966 for a work van in his electrical business.
@@budmorton8835 oh, okay. At times the shift lever would hang up when getting ready to go. I had to open hood next to me and reach down to move the shift linkage and then it was fine. This only happened after about 20 yrs of driving it. I loved this Econoline 100. It was a great plain and simple work truck.
My parents had one of these in the early 80s just now figured out what we rode in as kids, what a unique little van
Thanks for letting us tag along, Bud. Our grandpa had an Econoline pickup truck. I would love to have one someday. 😎
That’s the best sounding econoline on TH-cam
Thanks for the lift Bud 👍
My dad had one when I was a kid, Cool ride.

The Mystery Machine was a Dodge A100.

Oil doesn't work. Nor does grease for very long. The factory bushings on the linkage have disintegrated.

"That's 50 miles an hour"....
