Ford E-250/350 wanted

I'm still looking for a real nice 460 Ford van.
Any help would be appreciated.

It would be best if you posted WHERE approximately you're located or how far you're willing to travel to inspect something.

Can't really help without more info.

I'm open to travel for the right van.
It would be nice to keep travel east of the Mississippi but if the right van can be located ?

Ford van wanted

I'm after any nice 460 van.
I want to use it for towing.
I have a 351 E-150 that just won't do the job.
I'm pulling 6000+ now.

You might consider a later year than '97 or so----look for a V10 or 6.8 liter motor.

The upside to the modular motors especially the V10 is Mike from Five Star Tuning---an FTE vendor/sponsor---writes some widely popular tunes that can be flash loaded into your ECM. He offers insane customer service, will tailor your tunes to your needs, modify them along the way to fine tune it all for you.

So far I like my V10. I have been in the engine compartment and it is not as bad as I expected to work on.

Will probably do better on gas than a 460 too.

Also do you want a passenger van or a cargo?

Look for the 12 or 15 passenger Club Wagons---those tend to be E350 chassis with V10 motors. I've seen many a church selling them for various reasons.
