These vehicles are usually New Car Trades acquired by Trade Zone Auto Sales in Hackettstown, NJ. We have been a local Family Owned Used Car Dealer since 1977. We are now offering our previously publicly unavailable wholesale trades to you the eBay bidder! If you are a new or (5)or below feedback bidder YOU MUST CONTACT US BEFORE YOU BID! If you do not contact me prior to bidding I will cancel your bid, and block you from bidding further. Please visit our dealership on the eBay "about me" link. I appreciate any comments you have regarding our dealership. PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE READ THE ENTIRE DESCRIPTION BEFORE CALLING ME! MOST QUESTIONS CAN BE ANSWERED BY READING THE DESCRIPTION OR WATCHING THE VIDEO!! To see a short video on how this vehicle runs and sounds go to the following movie and enjoy: We are offering this nice NO RESERVE!! ONE OWNER! 1997 FORD EXPLORER SPORT 4X4 with a CLEAN AUTOCHECK REPORT! This SUV has a little below average miles for the year, but it is 15 years old. I will not make the claim that this is a pristine example of an older Explorer, but for the price I am willing to sell it for, it will be a heck of a bargain, and it does run very well! This is the Sport model of the 2 door Explorer so it comes equipped with a lot of nice equipment including power windows, door locks, mirrors, tilt wheel, cruise control with steering wheel controls, AM-FM stereo with Cassette player, rear wiper and defogger, tinted glass, roof rack, and much more!! The 4.0 Litre 6 cylinder starts right up and purrs like a kitten. It is mated to a smooth shifting 4 speed automatic transmission, and the optional All Wheel Drive system which is much safer than the base 4X4 system. It goes down the road nice and straight and the ABS equipped brakes work fine. Check out the video to see for yourself! The green paint is clean and shiny, though it does have some minor scratches, nicks, and dings. There are 2 small rust issues on both rocker panels (see the pictures), but overall it looks really nice as you can see in the pictures and video. The cloth interior is OK but it could use a good detailing, I gave it a basic clean up but it really needs a good shampooing to make it right. The drivers seat is broken and will probably need to be replaced. Other than that it is not too bad. It even has a valid NJ state inspection sticker. The matching Goodyear Wrangler tires are in great shape and are probably worth what I am selling the entire car for! They are mounted on the very nice factory aluminum alloy wheels. With NO reserve and my ultra low wholesale pricing you may be able to get this nice older SUV for way less than the Kelly Blue Book value of over $4000.00!! In fact I will have a low starting price of only $500 and if that's all it does that's what I will sell it for. All my vehicles are for sale locally and I reserve the right to end the auction early for any reason. Many of the vehicles are also driven so they may have a few more miles than is listed or shown in the pictures, but not too many, certainly not enough to affect the value of the vehicles. I have tried to be as honest and descriptive as possible but I'm not perfect. Please remember you are buying a wholesale vehicle and paying a wholesale price, not retail, so keep that in mind when looking at this vehicle, it is not a NEW car. Please read my feedback. As you can see almost everyone has been satisfied. Please do not come here wanting to inspect the vehicle and then pay, I offer you the opportunity to inspect it first. This is an AUCTION, once you win the bid you OWN it, and I expect to be paid FIRST! You can examine the vehicle at your leisure on the way home, or at your house! I have had a rash of non paying deadbeats who want to inspect the vehicle then want to renegotiate or renege on the deal, I do not renegotiate. I am sorry I have to be so harsh but this is starting to cost us a lot of money, so it's simple, if you do not want to pay, want to play games, or unsure if you really want the vehicle PLEASE REFRAIN FROM BIDDING!! If you have any questions, please contact me, my name is Craig Nicholas and my number is 908-249-3195 and I will try to answer any questions you may have. You are encouraged to come and look at this vehicle before you bid, if that is possible. I will be selling this vehicle, mechanically and cosmetically "AS-IS" Remember this is an auction, and the vehicle will be sold to the highest bidder after the low reserve has been met, if there is a reserve placed on the vehicle. Please do not ask what the reserve is, because I will not discuss it. A non refundable $500.00 deposit is required via PayPal within 24 Hours of the auction ending, unless other arrangements have been made. I only accept PayPal for the initial deposit, the balance due must be paid in CASH. If you have to pay by credit/debit card or PayPal there is a 3% inconvenience fee. Contact me for information on this. If you do not contact me to make arrangements within 24 hours I will sell it to the next bidder and issue an unpaid strike and negative feedback. The balance and pick up of the vehicle is due within 7 days of the auction ending, unless other arrangements have been made. Failure to pick the vehicle up within the allotted time will incur a storage fee of $25.00 per day or if you don't pickup the vehicle within the allotted time you will lose your deposit and I may or may not relist the vehicle. If you need assistance arranging transportation, I will help you with that , but there will be a $100 fee on top of the shipping charges. There is a $99 documentation fee, and if you live in NJ I am required to collect the appropriate sales tax. If you have a driver's license and insurance, I will even give you a temporary tag for $25.00 so you can drive it home. That's it. Nothing hidden. We are a well established, long time used car dealer and we pride ourselves on being as honest and straight forward as possible. GOOD LUCK!

We are offering this nice NO RESERVE!! ONE OWNER! 1997 FORD EXPLORER SPORT 4X4 with a CLEAN AUTOCHECK REPORT! This SUV has a little below average miles for the year, but it is 15 years old. I will not make the claim that this is a pristine example of an older Explorer, but for the price I am willing to sell it for, it will be a heck of a bargain, and it does run very well! This is the Sport model of the 2 door Explorer so it comes equipped with a lot of nice equipment including power windows, door locks, mirrors, tilt wheel, cruise control with steering wheel controls, AM-FM stereo with Cassette player, rear wiper and defogger, tinted glass, roof rack, and much more!! The 4.0 Litre 6 cylinder starts right up and purrs like a kitten. It is mated to a smooth shifting 4 speed automatic transmission, and the optional All Wheel Drive system which is much safer than the base 4X4 system. It goes down the road nice and straight and the ABS equipped brakes work fine. Check out the video to see for yourself! The green paint is clean and shiny, though it does have some minor scratches, nicks, and dings. There are 2 small rust issues on both rocker panels (see the pictures), but overall it looks really nice as you can see in the pictures and video. The cloth interior is OK but it could use a good detailing, I gave it a basic clean up but it really needs a good shampooing to make it right. The drivers seat is broken and will probably need to be replaced. Other than that it is not too bad. It even has a valid NJ state inspection sticker. The matching Goodyear Wrangler tires are in great shape and are probably worth what I am selling the entire car for! They are mounted on the very nice factory aluminum alloy wheels. With NO reserve and my ultra low wholesale pricing you may be able to get this nice older SUV for way less than the Kelly Blue Book value of over $4000.00!! In fact I will have a low starting price of only $500 and if that's all it does that's what I will sell it for.

All my vehicles are for sale locally and I reserve the right to end the auction early for any reason. Many of the vehicles are also driven so they may have a few more miles than is listed or shown in the pictures, but not too many, certainly not enough to affect the value of the vehicles.

I have tried to be as honest and descriptive as possible but I'm not perfect. Please remember you are buying a wholesale vehicle and paying a wholesale price, not retail, so keep that in mind when looking at this vehicle, it is not a NEW car. Please read my feedback. As you can see almost everyone has been satisfied. Please do not come here wanting to inspect the vehicle and then pay, I offer you the opportunity to inspect it first.

This is an AUCTION, once you win the bid you OWN it, and I expect to be paid FIRST!

You can examine the vehicle at your leisure on the way home, or at your house! I have had a rash of non paying deadbeats who want to inspect the vehicle then want to renegotiate or renege on the deal, I do not renegotiate. I am sorry I have to be so harsh but this is starting to cost us a lot of money, so it's simple, if you do not want to pay, want to play games, or unsure if you really want the vehicle PLEASE REFRAIN FROM BIDDING!!

If you have any questions, please contact me, my name is Craig Nicholas and my number is 908-249-3195 and I will try to answer any questions you may have. You are encouraged to come and look at this vehicle before you bid, if that is possible. I will be selling this vehicle, mechanically and cosmetically "AS-IS" Remember this is an auction, and the vehicle will be sold to the highest bidder after the low reserve has been met, if there is a reserve placed on the vehicle.

Please do not ask what the reserve is, because I will not discuss it.

A non refundable $500.00 deposit is required via PayPal within 24 Hours of the auction ending, unless other arrangements have been made. I only accept PayPal for the initial deposit, the balance due must be paid in CASH. If you have to pay by credit/debit card or PayPal there is a 3% inconvenience fee. Contact me for information on this. If you do not contact me to make arrangements within 24 hours I will sell it to the next bidder and issue an unpaid strike and negative feedback. The balance and pick up of the vehicle is due within 7 days of the auction ending, unless other arrangements have been made. Failure to pick the vehicle up within the allotted time will incur a storage fee of $25.00 per day or if you don't pickup the vehicle within the allotted time you will lose your deposit and I may or may not relist the vehicle. If you need assistance arranging transportation, I will help you with that , but there will be a $100 fee on top of the shipping charges. There is a $99 documentation fee, and if you live in NJ I am required to collect the appropriate sales tax. If you have a driver's license and insurance, I will even give you a temporary tag for $25.00 so you can drive it home. That's it. Nothing hidden. We are a well established, long time used car dealer and we pride ourselves on being as honest and straight forward as possible. GOOD LUCK!
