Vintage 1982 Boogie type van. GMC. Factory authorized conversion done by Starcraft. Very high quality. Located in Calgary, Alberta, Canada. Ebay does not have provision for people with multiple residences. History:Special ordered. Used only for semi-yearly road trip to Las Vegas by older couple with no children and no pets. Rear seats only used for suitcases/luggage. Never seen winter, never seen snow. Heck... Hardly even seen UV rays, except the few times it was removed from the single garage with covered windows where it was kept. You won't believe the paint, you won't believe the upholstery. It's a truly remarkable find. It's honestly difficult to believe when you stand beside it that you are looking at an all 100% original 1982 van. I believe anyone would be very hard pressed to find one in more outstanding original condition. Odometer reads in metric at 31,096 kilometres. Speedometer is Km/h and MPH. Exactly translated, odometer reads ONLY 20,652 miles. This is the original mileage. When we found it, it had been sitting for many years. Van was only used once per year. Then after a few years, not at all. It has had over $6000 worth of rejuvenation work to refresh drivetrain. Includes, but is not limited to:Flush and clean of each and every mechanical system. Includes:Fuel system complete flush.Carburetor rebuild.Engine oil change/flushBrake system flush.Transmission fluid change/flush.Differential fluid change/flush.Power steering flush.Cooling system flush.Complete tune-up.ALL new filters.Many new gaskets.Not only were all the fluids (and I mean ALL) changed, each and every system was flushed and cleaned Van is fully tuned and ready to go. Now, as stated, I am selling this 100% UNRESERVED. Asides from helping arrange your shipping, I have no time to take 99 more pictures, or have 2-hour long conversations. I don't care about price and I am not going to get into long drawn out discussions as to whether it's a 8.5/10 condition, or 9/10. Let's just call this a 1/10. Perspectives vary so, for ease of sale, please disregard everything else and assume this car is an awful wreck salvage-value scrap project vehicle with incorrect tires, poor exhaust, and needing everything. That way, I save some time this week during the sale, and devote more to helping the new owner afterwards with arranging their delivery. Also, review our feedback. You'll see that getting every last dime of money isn't my objective. I have money. Money comes easy. Sometimes money goes easy too (lol), but... it can be replaced. Time can't.We have sold 15+ cars now on eBay. This is our very last to go. We've LOVED this van. I had plans to do a few more customization changes but, bigger priorities have taken over. During our time on eBay, we've figured out a few things. We learned that 2 very important things are communication and procedure. Our little procedure actually focuses on communication. It goes as follows:After auction, we ask for your buyer's information. You supply.We fill in transfer papers and scan/send to you. You confirm spelling and information correct.You go to your bank, and send funds. We validate receipt.We begin on shipping, ...keeping you informed every step..You receive your cool vintage VAN, leave us another fabulous feedback, and begin cruising (and waving back to all the thumb's-up)We're not interested in Paypal deposits or anything. If you want this van, I'm sure you want it enough to be sincere. It's fairly unique with it's factory authorized customization and super low mileage. I'll be very disappointed if someone isn't genuine with their bid but, I think that anyone knowing what this is will see the value and step up. Our procedure is simple. Besides 3 main things (information, payment, delivery), it focuses heavily on clear and concise back/forth volley of communication. That's important. I realize I'm somewhat the anti-salesman and have taken strides to heavily under-represent this vehicle. That's fine. Of importance to us right now is a smooth sale to a genuine buyer. Somebody will get a heck of a deal.... If you are bidding, please be serious as I am and understand our adherence to this little system/procedure. It's to help both of us. If, for any reason, you cannot adhere to this procedure, please let us know BEFORE BIDDING. OR, if you are new to eBay or have zero-feedback record, please contact us first to let us know you understand and are genuine. Listing something unreserved can be a big risk. At least please be serious about bidding. If you don't want to lose out on this awesome classic van, and HAVE AN OFFER, please contact me. Most of our auctions end with me accepting an offer. I always appreciate the early-bird approach. Shipping to most states and destinations is in the $1500+ range. Please keep that in mind, and budget for at least this amount. Texas and Florida, and other really far states, are obviously a bit more at minimum $2250. Any required inspections, certifications, paperwork, or anything else are the buyer's responsibility. I don't know the rules in each particular state so, am selling as per Alberta rules. My wife has become pretty good at setting up shipping and, is happy to assist. Rest is up to you. Payment is by bank transfer, US account to US account. As stated, I don't ask for Paypal. Once payment is received, everything else is ready to proceed from there. If you'd like to speak over the phone, I'm happy to hear from you. Please write and we'll make arrangements. Hope you have fun bidding. It's an exciting process. Getting a good deal sweetens the joy. I believe owning classic cars should start fun and stay that way! If you think you may have seen this classic / vintage VAN, you could be right. We listed, and sold it for nearly $15,000 last year. Winning bidder made some lame series of excuses. Now it's unreserved. I'm starting at 250 bucks and I don't care where it ends. Here's that 2nd chance everyone speaks of..... Good luck people!
