“Almost Everything Works”: 1967 Ford Falcon Van

a1

Complete with American flag on the front end, this 1967 Ford Falcon van is advertised that “almost everything works.” Thanks to reader Jim S. for this neat find. It’s located in El Cerrito, California and is offered for sale here on eBay. The buy-it-now is a steep $5,950 but the seller is inviting lower offers.

It may not have the 21 windows of the expensive VW vans, but it’s not a six or seven digit price, either! If you count the quarter windows as separate ones, it has 15 windows. Unfortunately, I can also see what looks like rust and what may be poor previous repairs in this shot. The seller doesn’t tell us much about the van, but they do say all the doors lock and all the glass is in perfect condition.

I love the access on this type of van, with the double doors opening. Honestly, I’d rather have this than the sliding door on most minivans now, especially over a long period of time–I don’t like the “gritty” feeling I get from old sliding van doors. I know camper conversions on these vans are relatively common, and I can easily see this becoming one.

Great access back here, too! The seller doesn’t show us the engine or any good interior shots, which means an in-person inspection would have to take place before I’d bid. The back floor does look solid, and I wonder if there’s a story behind the two spare tires? The engine is listed as a 6-cylinder, which would be correct, and if it is original it would either be a 170 or 240 cubic inch inline 6. The seller does tell us that it runs “nice” and shifts well. I am thinking that this could be a neat project at a different price; what do you think?  Let us know in the comment section!

    If i am not mistaken the 170 was gone by 65 and the 240 was only offered by 67 which is the same as the 300 making it an easy swap. The best part is that it has a dual reservoir master cylinder, the first on first Gen econoline’s as this was the last year for this body.

    This is rarer than you might think as it is the extended wheelbase Super Duty Van available for only three years.

    falcon versions are more rare than the plain econoline badge ones
    find an 8 door (side doors on both left and right) and you really scored a rare one
    dodge did em, ford did em, chevy came out with the “new idea” of double side doors in 2000 something.. better late than never

    As an owner of a 62 Econoline pickup, I’ve always been envious of the power of the later models. The bigger rear end is a plus, too.

    Question? How is the falcon van different from the econline can of the same era?

      They’re not, they’re both the same bodies.

    This Feedback 3 seller isn’t likely to get any bids when he can’t even describe the car accurately or provide any details, beyond his opinion it’s worth five grand. BTW, this isn’t a ’67.
