clean 7.3, needs some attention

No affiliation, 7.3's are getting hard to find.

Look at the whole ad. 82k, 7.3PSD, Chateau package (I think), very clean, 13K. It needs to be un-ghetto'd, but it's just wheels and a lift away from that. I'm bettin' some car nut used this to haul his show or race cars. I'm bettin' it's been well cared for.

Re: clean 7.3, needs some attention

I agree, un-ghetto it and it could look pretty good. Fake portholes belong on Buicks, not Fords. Appearance-wise, it looks really clean.

I could almost live with the black paint around the windows. Almost. But it does have the advantage of not looking like a hotel courtesy transport van.

Re: clean 7.3, needs some attention

I tried to find a Chateau model passenger van with a 7.3 and couldn't even find one listed for sale. The price actually seems fair considering the low mileage.

Looks like they put black vinyl on the rear side windows and the rear door windows. I wonder what the reason was for that.

Yeah, I was thinking that under all that bling is a pretty great van.

No idea on the vinyl. In fact I have no idea why people do most of the crap they do to 'pimp their rides'.

I wonder what people think about how we 'pimp' ours. Same thing just different styles.

Worst thing to me is a lowered dually. There were two around town at one point. Hurt me when I saw one.
