Dare to be different and ride around in this unusual old-school truck.
Think about it for a moment; when was the last time you saw a 1962 Ford E-100 Econoline pickup truck? Chances are not very often and not recently. Well that could all change, as Vintage Motorcars of Sun Prairie, Wisconsin is offering up this beautiful and restored E-100 for sale. As of this writing, it is currently priced at $19,900, and you can make an offer on the truck right here. This truck runs like a dream and is sure to turn heads everywhere it goes. You better get used to the attention, because this beauty can’t help it.
This 1962 E-100 Econoline pickup is still running the original six-cylinder engine that emits a tantalizing purr every time. This truck also features the original three-speed manual transmission that shifts smoothly through all the gears without issue.
It’s safe to assume that the originality of this truck is what initially caught your eye at first glance. While that is an attractive and admirable quality, be sure to take notice of the impressive body and paintwork that went into this Econoline’s restoration process. The truck is sporting a near-new bright “Poppy Red” paint base coat with a clear coat that shines beautifully. It really is a fantastic color that hugs every curve and line on the extremely straight and true body. All of the glass and weather-stripping on this truck are in outstanding condition.
The interior is in excellent shape as well. The dual seats and doghouse have been re-upholstered with high-quality fabric to make for a very comfortable driving experience. The steering wheel was left un-restored to give the interior a cool patina appearance and to complement the new upholstery. One of the most noteworthy features about this example is the fact that it’s a 5-Window/Custom Cab model, which is very rare and difficult to find. The Custom Cab design gives this truck more room behind the front seats for extra storage, and the 5-window design grants the driver more visibility all around the cab.
It’s not hard to see that a lot of work, heart, and soul has been put into this truck to get it to the “ready-to-roll” condition it’s currently in. This is a very cool classic truck that will turn heads and be a great show at your local car show or cruise night. What’s more, you can own it without breaking the bank! Call today.
