Ford Econoline - 1961-67
In 1961 Ford introduced a totally new type of light duty work truck, the Econoline. The body was unitized and functioned
also as the chassis frame to which the running gear was attached. Its "mini cab-over" design was an immediate success.
The Econoline was a versatile and functional vehicle that was easily adapted for many uses. Used Ford pickup trucks contd.
For 1961 the body styles were the Econoline Pickup, Delivery Van, and Station Bus. 1962 was another highly successful
year for Econoline. The Station Bus was reclassified as a passenger car and declared a Falcon. The Econoline Pickup and
Delivery Van continued to be offered. In 1963 the Econoline Pickup increased its rated payload capacity and offered an
optional custom cab. Used Ford pickup trucks contd. The 1963 Econoline Van added standard dual outside rearview mirrors, heavier roof rails, and 8 door
options. The Station Bus continued in the Falcon line. For 1964 a new model joined the Econoline family and was called
the Panel Van, which really was a standard van without the side cargo doors. Used Ford pickup trucks contd.
The 1964 Econoline Pickup had door-mounted nomenclature, and incorporated an optional heavy-duty package and an upgraded
cab interior with color-keyed seat trim, cab headliner, and locking glove box door. The 1964 Van offered a heavy-duty
package and left hand cargo doors, 2 significant options. Used Ford pickup trucks contd.
In 1965 the Econoline series was again expanded to include a Supervan featuring an 18-inch body extension. The 1965 Van
sported stronger, more massive bumpers, a lower, more comfortable driver's seat, an integral package tray, and a more
efficient heater. The rear of the 1965 Econoline Van, Station Bus, and Club Wagon were quickly distinguished from
previous models by their rear cargo door-mounted license plate bracket and lamp. Used Ford pickup trucks contd.
In 1966 the Econoline-based family of Club Wagons was broadened, and the interior trim scheme was improved. By the start
of the 1967 model year, over 400,000 Ford Econolines had been sold. 1967 Econolines new features were the dual brake
master cylinder, padded sun visors, 2 speed wipers, and back-up lamps. 1967 marked the end of the Econoline Pickup and
the end of the first Econoline generation. Used Ford pickup trucks contd.
