2003 Ford E-350 Quigley Conversion Van

[FlyFAmerica]

I am posting this for the wife of a friend who recently passed from pancreatic cancer. Jim bought the van new and had the Quigley conversion done. It's very low mileage with about 31,000 miles. It has a Pennsylvania inspection through, I believe November 2019. It's a v10 engine. The primary use of the van was to pull his Jones Brothers 1910 Cape Fisherman(for sale) to the Jersey shore and to fish the beach at Island Beach State Park. The van has an inverter, 2 huge batteries, an air compressor, a Honda generator and a 12,000 pound Ramsey Winch. The roof is raised so you can comfortably stand. There are 2 seats in the front and the cargo area has cabinets, a workbench to tie flies or build rods, and many rod racks and drawers. The van is located in Pottstown, PA and I am in West Chester, so arranging to see it will have to be scheduled. The Quigley folks advised starting at $45,000 due to the extremely low mileage. Thanks for looking.

That's a sweet van but a real specific market. I submit you put your ad in some fishing mags/sites.

Thanks, Gahamby
I appreciate your comment but after searching around for selling of vans, I saw quite a few of these Econoline Quigley vans on this site. Jim-and I- were mostly into flyfishing and not so much into beach driving. If you know of a site more specific for this, I'd appreciate it. I'll see if anyone might want this to turn it into a camper.

Hey folks: I've seen this van in person and driven it as it's (somewhat) local to me. The owner and I couldn't quite come to terms on the price, so it's still for sale. They have come down off the $45k price they originally posted and I believe are asking $36k now. Message me if you want more details, my observations, and more photos that I took underneath, etc (I think they are still on my phone). In short: decent platform, but needs a fair amount of cosmetics and probably some mechanical tweaks, too. West Coasters will probably freak out over the rust patina underneath,b but it's mainly surface as far as I can tell. Interior probably needs to be gutted to be usable for anything, as it's a very utilitarian, homemade cabinet setup that I doubt could be repurposed for anything.

Way to step up you nailed it. That’s great info for any considering buying this van.
