2013 Ford Transit Connect 49K miles 2026 Conversion
New 2026 van build with extensive testing of all mechanical systems. Less than 50K original miles. No camping has been done yet! This project spanned over 6 months to turn this super low-mileage-last-year-high-roof model Ford Transit Connect into something truly special. Exceptional attention to detail. Mechanically it is 100%. Everything works. No rust. No leaks. 25+ mpg all day. Drives like a regular car. Upgraded stock stereo system with Bluetooth, voice and steering controls. Driver seat with lumbar and height adjustment. Clean CarFax with excellent maintenance history from zero miles and no accidents. A partial list of all work completed is presented below. The entire build and mechanical work is documented with pictures and receipts.
Mechanical work
- New spark plugs
- New ignition coils
- New valve cover gasket
- New sway bar links and bushings
- New HVAC blower motor
- New stainless steel muffler professionaly welded on
- Transmission fluid, filter and gasket replaced (full synthetic)
- Oil and filter replaced (full synthetic)
- Throttle body and valve clean
Other - wipers replaced, grill and emblem replaced, perforated leather steering cover installed, new seat and headrest covers, new all weather mats, ceramic restoration of headlights and trim. Car runs and drives great, shifts smoothly, has great compression on all 4 cylinders and shows that all computer diagnostic data values are within spec. Tires have a ton of tread. With less than 50K miles on the odometer there shouldn't be much to worry about especially after all the attention this car was given just prior to this listing.
Unique feature - You can turn it back into a cargo van in under 10 minutes. There are 3 main floor cabinets that can be easily removed giving you a full size cargo van. Last picture shows the cargo van mode.
