E-350/E-550 extreme expedition vehicle

1986 Ford E-Series Van Additional Info:

E-350/E-550 four wheel drive aluminum walk through box van built for severe duty search and rescue operations. The perfect expedition platform. 460ci engine, C-6 automatic transmission, 205(gear driven) cast iron transfer case, with Dana 70 posi-trac rear, and Dana 70 (king pin) front drive axle, with locking hubs.Under 25000 original miles.Suspension completely rebuilt with F-550 components including springs and hangers. All new Moog urethane leaf spring and shackle bushings, with new severe duty shocks. All new custom made drive shafts with every universal joint replaced. All new brakes, front and rear, including bendix calipers, rotors and drums, new lines front (braided stainless steel) and rear, with the best pads and shoes available.All new Timken wheel, axle and hub bearings front and rear..Alcoa 22.5 aluminum wheels with Goodyear all terrain 22.5 (load range G) radials (total value, almost $5000.00).All new Gates belts and hoses. All fluids replaced.I was in the process of transforming this into what I think would be an awesome camper/RV and personal office. I started by doing all of the mechanical work to make it extremely dependable and functional. Then I removed all of the interior materials, (including all original fiberglass insulation)down to the bare aluminum box. I then began to install new 2-3 inch polyiso insulation. I only just began this, so thats the current state of the interior. Ready for your own personal requirements and appointments.All wiring is in place including wiring for generator.Box covered in lockable tool and equipment boxes.Original roof mounted A/C unit (11,000 btu) still works.A very unfortunate personal issue is the only reason that I've listed it here.It runs like its new..Has new exhaust system, but has a slight leak.This truck has always been in the south and mostly indoors (the Alaska plate is from another vehicle that I owned while living there, and is not included in this auction) therefore only slight rust is in the hood, lower doors and under the secondary battery. Mentioned here because its so minor, that its not visible in the pics.For those interested in further information, don't hesitate to ask either here, or by phone.PLEASE, ask all questions before bidding!There is a $500.00 non refundable deposit required through paypal within 24 hours of bid placement..Thanks.John.404-831-8737
