PS here is some info about the early 60s E-Vans : Based on the compact Ford Falcon. the first Ford Econoline was introduced for the 1961 model year. Sized roughly to compete with the Chevrolet Corvair 95 (Greenbrier Sportswagon) and Volkswagen Type 2. which was 172. 3 in (4. 76 mm) long. It was originally offered as a cargo van. an eight-passenger van with three rows of seats (which carried the Ford Falcon name) and as a pickup truck. A 165 lb (75 kg) counterweight was fitted over the rear wheels to balance the front-heavy vehicle; this was sometimes removed by later owners. The implementation of situating the driver on top of the front axle with the engine near the front wheels is called. in the US. a "cab over" short for cab over engine configuration. In Europe it is called a "forward control" vehicle. The body styling borrowed heavily from the. smaller. UK produced. Thames 400E which had been in production since 1957 and the 1956-64Jeep Forward Control. Instead of the rear-mounted engine used by Volkswagen and Chevrolet. the first E-Series had a flat nose with the engine between and behind the front seats. Early models had a 144 CID inline 6-cylinder engine with a three-speedmanual transmission. Later models had a 170 CID or 240 CID engines with a three-speed manual or automatic transmission. It was an immediate success with utilities like the Bell Telephone System. In its first year. 29. 32 standard vans. 6. 71 custom Econoline buses. 11. 93 standard pickups and 3. 00 custom pickups were made. The success of the Econoline led to its layout adopted in 1964 by the Chevrolet Van/GMC Handi-Van and Dodge A100; it would also be utilized internationally and sold by Mitsubishi. nbsp;Nissan. and Toyota. with microvans called the Subaru Sambar and the Daihatsu Hijet.
