Seller's Description
1996 Ford E350 7.3L Turbo Diesel with Sportsmobile Pop-Up and Quigley 4x4.
$45,000 or best offer. Located in Everett, Washington
Sportsmobile pop top (installed by Sportsmobile)
-Transmission (e4od) rebuilt approximately 10,000 miles ago with every possible strengthening / upgraded part used.
-Agile Off Road did their “better handling” package to it, which dramatically reduced sway and improved steering and turning
-Engine has zero problems at the moment that I know of. Glow plugs and fuel pump replaced in the last 20k miles, a couple of pulleys and the belt replaced about 10k miles back.
-Front brake discs are new about 10k miles ago, pads still in good shape, have replacement pads as well.
-AC compressor and bottle replaced about 20k miles back, works very well.
-4 Brand new BF Goodrich Discovery tires (less than 500miles)
-2 tilt open CJ Lawrence windows installed by Sportsmobile when they did the top
-Aluminess bumpers (Rear bumper needs hinge maintenance)
-Superwinch up front (honestly don’t remember the model but it’s new, only used twice - once to test, once to pull some Chilean grandmas out of the sand!)
-Two fuel tanks, 40g + 26g, built 2015. I get about 550-600 miles on the 40g tank if it’s flat driving, so I almost never use the second tank.
-Interior is all built of aluminum and plastic, all aluminum is powder coated, no aluminum on aluminum moving parts (ie, steel hinges / hardware)
-28 gallon water tank,
-Dometic fridge/freezer on heavy duty locking furniture slides
-Stainless sink / faucets
-Stainless marine cooktop cooks well off angle, doesn’t rattle when driving
-The whole van has a ton of soundproofing. The walls are all stuffed with 3M sound proofing material, there is a lot of dynamat applied beneath the plastic interior walls to the large resonant body panels, the doors and the floor have a two layer + mass-loaded vinyl soundproofing applied, then there’s Vinyl flooring over that.
-Propane bottle is in an aluminum box bolted underneath the van. It’s a mild pain to drop it to fill, but I wanted the bottle outside the van, and not fixed to the frame in order to facilitate filling all over the world. Easy enough to reposition / change out if you want. It’s a horizontal marine bottle that is 20L I think (same volume or close to as a standard US BBQ bottle). I get 6 months of daily use out of a fill.
ELECTRICAL SYSTEM:
-3 x 100w flexible solar panels.
-Bluesea battery separator to charge house batteries from alternator
-Blue Sky solar controller
-200ah Odyssey Blue Top batteries.
-600W Prowatt sine wave inverter
-Quite decent audio with an independent high quality amp under the driver’s seat and good (Hertz) speakers in the doors. Liveable when driving (engine noise will never go away in that van), excellent when parked.
