Econoline ideas

well guys after a year of searching i finally got an econoline, i was planning to do it up as an old shop truck. Do you guys have any ideas??? i was thinking steelies with spidercaps for wheels or maybe astros? im still stuck on color though. here are a couple pictures, i dont have the car yet cause i just got it on ebay (i hope that isnt a forbidden word on here )

I think i might keep those roof lights?


maybe some nerf bars to replace that bag ass bumper?


i have a set of old mustang seats that i'm planning to put in it.

also to make it that much more custom i want replace the stock grill with an early corvette grill.

 

These are popping up all over the place. Looks like it is in pretty good shape. Good find.

 

Lots of threads on Econos. Look around for some ideas from what others have done.

Why Mustang seats? The Econo seats work without modification and are pretty comfortable (although the pre-65 ones have pretty straight backs).

Congratulations on your win!

 

Congrat's on your Econo!
They rock and i got mine from the midwest via ebay as well.
Welcome to the club

I went for the hot wheel look with the rims and tires and it works.
