Who wanted a Transit Connect window van?
Just decided to make one as a modification of the panel van. Cut in the side windows, added grey and black seats based on internet photos of the 1:1. Inexpensive Greenlight diecasts make good donor models. Next up, a full size Transit raised roof window mini bus but will try a different technique.

John, 'twas I who wanted a window Transit Van, but I was thinking of either the mid roof or high roof models. Your Transit Connect van, however, is a great conversion!

Ford had a closeout blowout on those a couple of years ago.
On their own website which is usually just worthless apparel and coffee mugs, they reduced the price to either $2.00 or $2.50. I bought the last 24 they had. I never determined why they closed out an ongoing model. Obviously GreenLight is still producing them. Now if I just had a use for two dozen Transits Connects.
