Wasn't that more about Drifters in that thread Mauser?

Sundowners are apparently JG47 prefix on the id plate.
i have a drifter 318 van and xc sundowner 302, look out for jg 47 and rally pack tag on rad support. 351 should have rear disc brake

I bought an XC panel van (we suspect it may have been a GS) without the barn doors several years back. I had plans on creating a Sundowner look-alike. That didn't go through due to other reasons and sold it. I was actually suprised with how fast it sold. The guy that bought it had plans of turning it into a Sundowner look-alike himself. I have to admit, those Ford Sundowners (not escort) panel vans are mighty fine looking machines!

Hi.
To identify a xc sundowner, the model code number is 45684, which is before the engine and trans codes.
xd sundowner 45984
45681 = xc "std" van
45683 = xc "500" van
45981 = xd "std" van
45983 = xd "GL" van
It's night time and their is a light drizzle, across the road parked under a street light is a xc sundowner, painted onyx black
no decals, no windows, 351, toploader, disc brake lsd 9 inch, lowered two inch's and sitting on 15x8 US racer with comp t/a
you look down at your hand and you have the keys.( o well, I build one like that )
It's pity Ford didn't make their bodies as strong has their drive trains.
thanks. will keep my eyes out. for one.
