Vehicle Detail
***THIS IS A NO RESERVE AUCTION*** This 1992 Toyota Previa LE All-Trac van is being offered needing repairs, or as a parts vehicle. It's main problem is that the brakes are not working due to rusted and corroding brakelines. I no longer need a vehicle this large and have decided not to put any money into it for repairs. If you're still with me, I'll give some details. I bought the van in May 2003 with 105K miles. It has always been very reliable and averages about 20 mpg. The all-wheel-drive system lets you travel in nearly any weather condition. First some good points: -Engine, transmission, and 4WD drive system work smoothly. 161K is not a lot of miles for a Previa engine. Does not burn any oil. Has had regular oil changes. Starts and runs easily. -New brake calipers, rotors and pads at all 4 wheels at 153K, but note that the brakes are not currently working, as has already been mentioned. -Set of Michelin Harmony radial tires (plenty of miles left) on factory Previa alloy wheels (wheels could use a pro cleaning). Handles and steers nicely. -Excellent interior, with no wear to seats, no major stains to the carpet, no cracks to the dashboard, and no rips to the headliner (see photos). We don't smoke, have kids, or pets. -New catalytic converter and oxygen sensors at 149K, new alternator and Interstate battery at 145K. -Original 9-speaker CD/FM/AM/Cassette sound system sounds great, but one rear speaker is distorted, so I keep the balance toward the front. -Alarm, power windows, central locking, heat, clock, and other electricals are working well. Included are the original owner's manuals, 1 original key, and 2 duplicates. -There are no Check Engine or warning lights lit on the dash, other than for the brakes. -All of the window glass is in excellent condition. -Clear NJ title in hand. The known bad points: -The brakelines are corroded in places and need to be replaced, or at the very least, some sections of those lines. -The spring mechanism for the parking brake is rusty and needs to be replaced. If the parking brake was pulled, it might not stop the van or it might not be able to be released. -The frame which holds up the spare tire is rusty and should be replaced. -The rear differential center cover is rusty on the rear side, and a coat of epoxy currently keeps it from leaking too much. Gear oil does need to be topped up a little every few months. -The paint is generally shiny (see photos), but there are a few small dings, dents, nicks, and rust spots. The only spot of rust perforation is behind the right rear wheelwell. -There is a large dent on the left rear corner, and a smaller crease in the center of the hood, both caused by falling tree limbs. -The dual AC system is functional, but needs a freon recharge about every other year. Not blowing cold air right now. Has been converted to the current R134A freon, though. -There is no longer any outside air possible thru the dash. You need to open a window for that. Please ask any specific questions you might have.Whether you have access to affordable brake work, or need a drivetrain and nice interior for your own Previa, this van might be what you're looking for. It's located near Lambertville, New Jersey 08530. That's an hour and a half west of New York City and about an hour north of Philadelphia. Deposit of $200 by Paypal is due within 48 hours of auction closing time. Payment in full by Cashier's Check or Cash in-person within 7 days, please. The van needs to be trailered until the brakes are fixed. If the winning bidder wants to make arrangements for shipping the van, I will be available to meet your shipper at my home for pickup. The Previa is also being advertised in other media, so I reserve the right to cancel this auction if it is sold outside of ebay. I don't normally sell cars, but have a look at my ebay rating of 100% positive feedback on over 750 other transactions. Thank you for bidding. *** THIS VEHICLE IS BEING RE-LISTED AFTER BEING SOLD ON EBAY OVER A WEEK AGO. THAT WINNING BIDDER NEVER CONTACTED ME OR RESPONDED TO EMAILS FROM ME OR FROM EBAY. PLEASE DON'T BID UNLESS YOU WANT THE PREVIA AND ARE WILLING TO PAY FOR IT. THANK YOU ***
