There are maybe 5 primary websites including E-Bay where like 90% of everything being sold can be found. Within all those sites there have not been over the last 6 months that I have been watching, or right now, any used Chateaus with low miles, in great shape for a price close to mine. Look, all you want, wait as long as you like, but don't expect another chance for a Chateau like mine very soon. I offer any buyer the right to cancel any sale, and get full refund of any deposit, if upon LOCAL inspection, the van does not meet expectations. This offer does not apply in any way except when an inspection takes place here. Once the van was to be picked up and shipped there are no returns of any kind what-so-ever. That is more than fair. I address this again in the listing. Thankyou for your interest. It's a real nice van I am only the second owner. It was in outstanding condition when I bought it and I have strived to continue the fine care of the van. I believe the condition it is in now shows the results of those efforts. Being a true, Ford built Chateau it has all the options, and UNLIKE MOST CONVERSION VANS THAT ARE OVER 7-10 YEARS OLD, MY WINDOWS HAVE NO LEAKS AND NO RUST-OUT THAT PLAGUES CONVERSION VANS. The 5.4 V8 Triton runs strong and smooth and the 4 speed automatic with overdrive shifts without slippage. The van rides level and smooth and holds a good straight track. There is no smoking from the exhaust. All guages work properly. There are power windows, drivers' seat, mirrors, door locks, with remote fobs of course, cruise control and steering. Front and rear heat, with good HOT heat from the rear unit, front and rear AC as well, tinted windows, upgraded fabics on all the seats, and 4 captains reclining seats with arm rests. Both front seats also have lumbar adjustments, AM/FM radio with casette and CD conrol features, tilt steering wheel, full running boards, trailer hitch and chromed bumpers including the sought after rear step bumper with protective cover. The tires have about 75% tread left and are a better quality matched set. The interior is excellent. The headliner pristine, the seats void of tears, rips frayed surfaces etc. The carpet is also in superb condition. On a scale of 1-10 I honestly give the interior a solid 9. Minor scruffs on some places on the side panels. You will love the feeling of pride you will get to enjoy any time someone gets in the van. The body has never been in an accident. There are a couple of rust spots but nothing really major. You should be very satisfied with the condition of the body. The paint has a lot of nice, even shine to it and the alloys are also in far better condition than what you would normally expect. As I said, I am only the second owner and this van has never been neglected. The van is advertised locally and except for the use of the Buy It Now Option, may be sold and this listing terminated whether or not bids have been placed. IF THE LISTING IS STILL UP THE VAN IS STILL FOR SALE. DON'T WANT TO GAMBLE? THEN BUY IT NOW. A DEPOSIT OF $1500 IS REQUIRED WITHIN 24 HOURS OF THE TIME OF A WINNING BIDDER OR SOMEONE TAKING ADVANTAGE OF THE BUY IT NOW OPTION. THIS MUST BE MADE INTO MY PAY PAL ACCOUNT. THIS INFORMATION WILL BE PROVIDED TO THE WINNING BIDDER OR BUYER. THE VAN IS 30 MILES WEST OF CHICAGO AND CAN BE INSPECTED AND TEST DRIVEN. IF BUYER WANTS TO INSPECT THE VEHICLE, BEFORE MAKING FINAL PAYMENT, THEN SUCH DESIRE MUST BE MADE KNOWN TO ME WITHIN 3 DAYS OF THE PURCHASE AND MUST BE DONE WITHIN 5 DAYS OF AUCTION ENDING OR USING THE BUY IT NOW OPTION. IF BUYER DECIDES THE VAN DOES NOT MEET ALL EXPECTATIONS THE SALE CAN BE CANCELLED AND THE DEPOSIT WILL BE RETURNED, SO LONG AS IT HAS CLEARED MY BANK. IF BUYER DOES INSPECT THE VAN AND CHOOSES TO COMPLETE THE PURCHASE THE BALANCE OF PAYMENT WILL BE DUE WITHIN 24 HOURS. NO PENALTIES WILL BE IMPOSED IN THIS EVENT EXCEPT FOR ANY FEES E-BAY OR PAY PAL MAY NOT REFUND TO ME.......... I CAN'T BE ANY MORE FAIR. IF BUYER CHOOSES TO FORGO AN INSPECTION THEN PAYMENT IN FULL MUST BE RECEIVED WITHIN 4 DAYS OF AUCTION ENDING OR PURCHASE THROUGH THE BUY IT NOW OPTION. PAYMENT OF THE FULL PURCHASE PRICE, OTHER THAN THE $1500 DEPOSIT MUST BE MADE IN CASH DURING NORMAL BANKING HOURS OR BY DIRECT MONEY WIRE TRANSFER INTO MY BANK AND THE VAN WILL NOT BE RELEASED UNTIL ANY AND ALL FUNDS HAVE BEEN FULLY CLEARED BY MY BANK.
