Vehicle Detail
No reserve. Whatever it goes for, it goes for. The Good - Engine allegedly has less than 5K miles on it. Tranny seems good. Was a Florida Van - body in good shape (no rust on lower panels). 155" wheel base (this is the extended version). Good tires, between 50 and 75% tread. I did some minor work on it, including replacing the driver's seat (but with a passenger side seat), cleaning and treating the cargo bed with corroseal, putting a cover on the steering wheel, replacing the headliner with a nice one, replacing a blown speaker, replacing the doghouse/glove box, installing a driver's door armrest, and similar. Good battery. Van starts easily. Not Shown in Photos: I have four brand new wheel caps (generic, not OEM), a new rear view mirror, a replacement rear kick plate, a replacement driver's side door panel in the right color (used but not trashed), some replacement floor panels for the door wells (pretty ugly but functional), replacement windshield shroud covers, a replacement left rear door inside panel, and a replacement upper back door shroud; these items will all be included. It has a third of a tank of premium gas. The Bad - (1) VAN WILL NOT PASS VIRGINIA STATE INSPECTION because it throws codes - and different codes at different times. I suspect it needs a new computer, but I don't know; maybe it's just that some of the contacts are corroded or loose. (2) Prior owner put the wrong starter in when he replaced the engine, and shimmed it incorrectly - that's been fixed, but as a result of that stupidity the flywheel was damaged and will probably need to be replaced (but as noted above, it still starts easily). (3) Driver door needs a new window regulator. (4) Interior - very back end of the cargo bed has rust rot-out - I was going to spray the area with rust converter and cover it with cut sheet of diamond plate, but I gave up before I got to it. (5) Miscellaneous: Both front doors need new shims (typical for these vans). The exterior plastic parts are brittle, due to 16 years of Florida sunshine. I have only one key for it. In short, this is a project. It's certainly drivable, and as far as I can tell, everything else works - I drove it from Fort Lauderdale, FL to Arlington, VA and it made it, no problem. It may be it's only worth parting out - but if so, the engine alone is worth $1000, even with the flywheel problem. Tranny is worth another $400. Tires are probably worth $200. The replacement parts are worth another $200. And so on. I just don't have the time or money to deal with the codes and flywheel issues, and I don't have the time or the room to part it out myself. In short, I'm giving up on it, despite the fact I'm likely losing over $2500 and over 60 man-hours on it. Could be used as a farm or camp vehicle with no state inspection, I suppose. Bottom line - If you can fix it, it's probably worth $2500 to $3000, easy, depending where you live. Or probably give you years of service. If you can't or don't want to fix it, it's probably worth $1500 to $2000 in parts.On Sep-02-17 at 07:34:14 PDT, seller added the following information: Added info: The dark color of the cargo bed is from the corroseal, not from bed-liner. I do NOT have the left rear door inside panel - I thought I did, but the one I have is a right rear door panel. The parts listed as "replacement" were taken from junkers - they are used parts, not new. One of the headlights is new (the other one is in good condition).
