I made the mistake of once loading up a number of bags of cement through the rear door into that back section. When I punched the accelerator down at the corner it did the most exciting and terrifying wheelie you can imagine.

Yes indeed, we had some great times with that old van.

LOLOLOLOL, that's great! Someone must have thought that van had a hell of an engine in it!

John,

Looking at the catalog page you posted......the 4000, AND the 4005 are listed as having 21 Frets. Am I reading this wrong???
I thought ONLY the 4001 had 21 Frets, and THAT was only a percentage of models for a couple of years.

Correct me if I'm wrong please.......

Funny- you're the first person in the last 46 years to point out that typo!

The 4002 always had 21 frets.

That's RIGHT!!!! I knew the 4002 had 21 frets--but forgot about THAT

By the way.....NICE old Ford van!!!!!!!!!!!

Funny......I almost never think of the 3000 series basses. I bet they're cool though.
