'96 E150 to a '08 face lift possible?
Do you think a '96 E150 can get a '08 face lift--the headlights, front bumper, and grille? I know some modding will be required, just want to know if such a project this size is possible. The van was damaged from a pole , and this is a wheelchair van.

Yes---and more money and a bit of skill not to mention patience----of course money can buy that too if we hire such jobs out!
DanielC this sort of thing is NOT just cosmetic or bolting on new sheet metal and calling it a day. From the firewall forward the '08's and later were significantly different enough making this NOT an easy swap.
We have one member here who did extensive work on a race car hauler but he's very highly skilled in autobody metal work this was somewhat easy for him to do. You and I working in our driveways or without a lot of experience might find it a bit more of a challenge.
Me---I'd just buy an '08 and be done with it. Just repair the '96--you'll thank yourself.
