Ford E-Series

The E-Series, first sold as the Econoline in 1961, is Ford's full size van, a cargo and passenger van that became the best selling van in the United States for many years, with more than eight million sold. It began as a mid engined forward control van on the Falcon, became a front engined van in 1968, and from 1975 a body on frame van that served as the chassis for ambulances, buses and motorhomes. The vans ended in 2014 but the cutaway chassis goes on. This site gives every generation and every model year its own page, in 4 generations: the first generation (1961 to 1967); the second generation (1968 to 1974); the third generation (1975 to 1991); the fourth generation (1992 to 2025).
