'97 Ford Econoline AKA Champagne Papi. Bought in CA summer 2021 and I'm only the third owner. I have paperwork from the previous owners as well as my own service records. Big things: Transmission replaced shortly after I purchased it; Ball joints and leaf springs replaced summer 2022; Transmission sensor replaced x2 only because the check engine light was still on after being replaced the first time. The mechanic said something about a PCM needing to be replaced, but that it wasn't necessary because it was pulling the same sensor code. I have the papers explaining it all and the shop phone number if anyone is interested in calling. He's been very helpful in talking to folks that have questions about it. I also started painting the wood white/blue, but its very easily customizable and can be painted over. The layout was a big selling point for me. Can be two small beds or made into one larger bed as well. I attached photos from last summer of the underside of the van as well to show rust level.
This is by no means a luxurious conversion, but its a badass van with a lot of life left for a new journey. Priced low because I truly just want to find someone who will bring it back to life with their own adventures as I know my time with it has come to an end.
