THIS VAN IS LOCATED IN KENTUCKY. PLEASE CONSIDER THIS WHEN BIDDING ON THIS ITEM. DESCRIPTION: You are bidding on one used 1997 Ford Club Wagon, E-350, 14 Passenger Van (plus Driver). This vehicle is Kentucky State Government surplus. It has the 5.4L V-8 gas engine. This vehicle drives out pretty good as I drove it a couple of miles. This vehicle comes with 245/75R16 tires and has the Spare Tire underneath of the rear. This van has 126,765. miles on it. It does have Tilt Steering Wheel and Cruise Control, although two of the Cruise Control buttons are missing from the center of the steering wheel. This probably Does render the Cruise Control as 'broken'. Gray vinyl seats and a Black vinyl floor mat. Manual front seats and AM/FM Stereo. Air conditioning works properly and it does have 'rear' air too. . The fans blow out every where that it should. We had this vehicle running while the pictures were being taken. INTERIOR: The end of the Shifter Handle has the very tip or end missing, but the Over-Drive button STILL works properly. Both front seats have a seam that has come loose from use and results in a large hole on each. The Drivers seat has a couple of holes punched into it also and some worn areas in the material. There are Four (4) rows of seats behind the front seats. The first three rows are designed for three (3) passengers on each seat, and the fourth row seat is designed for four (4) persons. The first three rows of seats are all showing wear and some mistreatment. There are holes in the vinyl and some heavy wear on the first seat where you climb into seat, there is some foam cushion missing and material is worn and torn. The tops of the seats on all three have a 'broken-down' looking place in them where perhaps former passengers held onto each seat as they worked their way in and out of the van. The Headliner is there but has some 'extra' holes in it and some stains and dirt on it plus it is coming loose in places near the rear and someone has sliced some of the headliner. Some of the Ventilation grills are missing from the headliner as well. The air DOES circulate properly to each of the vent holes in the headliner though. The rear seat is in the best condition and it will hold up to four persons. All of the seats in the passenger area "appear" as if they can be removed rather easily. The black plastic on the Passenger Side entry doors for the passenger area, in the floor or door well, has two holes in it and it is broken on the front edge of it. The rear door has a some material torn away from the panel. The floor mat is pulled loose and bunched up between the front seats and the first seat in the Passenger compartment and the mat is torn in a couples of spots. The spots are between the first and second row of seats and between the second and third row. There are two small holes on the dashboard to the left of the dash gauge cluster. The console has a two-way radio microphone holder clip mounted on it. There are several other small screw holes in the console too. Dash has the cigarette lighter missing and the 12V power supply's door won't close completely. The passengers side lower section of the dash is coming loose. Someone has been cutting or carving on the steering wheel. Rear view mirror has come off of the windshield and is in the front seat. The van has Tilt Wheel too. Both front seats have large holes where the material has come apart at the seams and maybe some cushioning is missing. Interior light switch that is in the driver's door area is gone, so the interior lights do not come on when the driver's door is opened. One of the seat belts for the second row won't go back or retract. EXTERIOR: Drivers Side: Fender has a few scratches and a couple chips in the paint. Driver's door has a few paint chips missing and some scratches. Rest of the side: several chips in the paint around the fuel door (above it) and several scratches along the side. The very back in the corner, behind the bumper is a dent and paint is gone leaving the gray primer showing. BACK: Bumper has several dents and scratches. There is a lot of paint gone from the top side of bumper and surface rust is forming. Both rear doors have DEEP scratches and DEEP dents plus some chips in the paint. A window on the right rear door has a fastener missing. These DEEP scratches are also on the panel between the door and the right rear corner. PASSENGER SIDE:Just forward of the bumper and in the lower part are some dents and scratches. (See Photo). There are also other scratches along the panel and some chips in the paint. TWO PASSENGER AREA DOORS: the rear one has several scratches and some chips in paint. The front one has a dent just behind the passenger door. There is some paint gone under the window on this door and some surface rust is there. PASSENGER DOOR: A lot of chips in the paint and a lot of scraches too. FENDER: there are several chips in the paint and some scratches too. FRONT: Hood: Several chips in the paint and several scratches too. Bumper has chips and scratches and some small dents. WINDSHIELD: The driver's side at the top the rubber gasket around the windshield has pulled loose or shrunk or come loose and is exposing the window. There is some rust forming behind that area towards the gutter-line. The gutter-line is there but has some areas that look like paint is gone.
