If I have a 1970 Ford Econoline Supervan completely rebuilt. It has everything you need except solar energy, but it does come equipped with a generator as well as electrical and water hookup at campsites. Unfortunately, the transmission gave last fall and I don’t have the money to fix it. It sleeps up to 3 comfortably with two up top and one down low. The sink is hand pump, the stove runs off of propane, and there is plenty of storage. I took it down to Tuscan, AZ (From Indiana) last year. Everything worked really well for me. It’s a great van, I just can’t afford to fix the transmission. If anyone is interested or knows of someone that is let me know. I’d consider meeting almost anywhere, especially if there is climbing nearby. I am asking $3,000. I understand this may seem high for a van with a blown transmission, but everything else is new and it working order. If you have any questions about it’s features, price, etc let me know!

Have you looked into the cost of a replacement transmission?

The only problem with that is the most car experience I have is changing my oil, breaks, and tires. I have also found a few mechanics that have quoted me for a full rebuild and/or a transmission from another Ford with a C4 transmission. Those prices ranged from $850-2,300.
