E350 CABRIOLET general info

[kto17]

Man that is wild. I have never seen a cab on one of these trucks! Please take as many pics as you can and post them up. We need as much documentation of these trucks as possible as there isn't a lot of information out there. I'd love to see what else Kroger did to the truck!

There has been a beautiful black one on Craigslist recently. It was $10,000 and they came down around $6,000. Its near Killeen, TX. It has graphics on the cab and the cap, only other one I've seen with a cap. Really cool looking, but the wife thinks I'm crazy.

How much did these vehicles cost new? Also it would be nice to know the specs from horsepower,torque to towing capacity.

Hello , I am brand new to this forum. I just purchased a 1986 Cabriolet. My van would of came exactly like the brochure posted above. The interior is the same as the pics, the exterior is white but has been repainted at some time. Underneath the rear cargo lights though is the gold pinstripping which is the same in the pics. I know very little about this unit, it has the 6.9 diesel, us gear exhuast brake , dne2 aux transmission and yesterday when I removed the doghouse I was surprised to see it also had the banks roto-master turbo. I picked it up the other day put two new batteries in it got a safety check and have been driving it everyday since. It does need alot of tlc but I plan on driving it this summer and tearing down this winter. Any info would be helpful, the dne2 trans wires are unhooked at this time so I don't know what might be wrong. I will post some pics as soon as I take some.

Patrick, I'm with you, I just bought my Cabriolet E350 the 1st. I already love it and my mind is racing with all the things I can do with it and for it. Back in my way younger years I worked out of and drove a E350 Mod Ambulance. It was one of the Best ambulances to drive and ride in at that 70's-85 time and they handle great.

My wife seen our from the road as we were going down town I missed it all together but after seeing it I knew it was for me. The owner was great to work with and had taken excellent care of it so I am so excited to find out all I can about it. As you if you find any information out about them let me know and I will also.

I have tried to add some pictures and to save some stuff but I am not very good at this yet but will keep trying, Jerry

I have a full factory manual including price sheet for the 1998 year model. It came with my cabrio when I bought her. If any of you Cabrio owners want a copy I can Email

[chiefbuzz]

I would be interested in the manual stuff, Ok I know stuff may not be the right word but I could see the down side of not doing it right without a manual of information.

I use to tell our rescue team to alway try before they pry....why cut up a car when all you have to do is open it

Anyway chiefbuzzbee@yahoo.com

I would like a copy. Mine is an F350. But some things might cross over. As this is a hard veh to find any info on at all.

Thanks Dave

I was in hope you were Gods Servant telling me that he was going to get in contact with me for the Manuals. However like me you are looking for the same thing. I posted my request back in June of 2013 and nothing, No posts about it either from January of 2013. Have you tried a Ford Truck dealer sometimes the Auto dealers don't or won't get or have them. Good Luck!

Here they look at you like a dear in the headlights. When you ask or show them what you are talking about. But if I ever come across some info on these I will forward it to you.
