Hi All,
Just got my first escort van, 1979 Sundowner. I’m familiar with escorts, just never had a van before.
Needs a little work but is going to be awesome.
I’d appreciate any assistance tracking down some information and if anyone has any of the parts below please PM me.
Info needed:
· Brochures or ads - white sundowner, where is black vs. white, sundowner features etc. Such as did sundowners all have spotlights?
· Do vans normally have removable vent/grill above heater plenum / below window?
· Was there a full roof lining on any model to use as template or aftermarket/ custom ideas and options?
· Was a cargo cage behind drivers seat a factory option or only aftermarket? Anyone have a lead on decent ones?
· Seats are orange and brown stripes. Was there a special seat pattern for the sundowners? If so anyone know if fabric is still available?
Parts needed:
· Reverse lights
· Rear quarter bumpers
· Front quarter bumpers
· Left side mirror
· Rear valance (I’ve seen the new ones from expressed steel, seeing if anyone has a decent rear cut?)
· Front spot light mounts and switch
· Sundowner window seals
· Sundowner graphics
· Factory A/C parts
