Ford Econoline Cabover

Our oddball of the show is this early-1960s Econoline pickup. If you think it looks like a panic stop will throw this truck flat onto its nose, you probably would be right if Ford didn't throw a few hundred pounds of dead weight in the rear. Even-so, I've read the traction is bad; a disadvantage it had over its competition: the Corvair 95 Rampside.

 

The advantage, however, was a totally flat bed.
