getting another safari
I found a 1993 safari ext needs minor body work and paint touch up- I now own and don't care for a 1999 ford e150 with a built up (camper type) package. The ford I have owned for 2 years and last year I replaced all front brake components and yet the right front brake still drags, the steering box leaks and needs to be replaced and recently the lower intake manifold gasket leaks coolant into the engine. Now to repair all of these parts alone would be over a grand. I am trading even for the safari. Since I have mega knowledge about our beloved vans since I have owed 5 of them and done practically everything to them. And I have alot of parts including V8 swap stuff so I figure I can possibly use my project as a parts van and make one great van out of the two. I will post pics of the 93 tomorrow on my photo bucket page.
Recently bought a 1989 Astro RS from Florida. Replaced stock engine witha 1997 5.7 vortec with TBI and replaced transmission with rebuilt 700R4 with mild shift kit.
