Selling off our van project! Body is pretty good, does have some rust and could use a new seal around the raised top. Has one orginal back seat, not bolted down. Has the original slide out top bed with cushions and all the doors and windows work well. Has a full set of curtains, most of them very old and still whole and still quite good and effective. Tow bar currently bolted to the front bumper is included. Known problems besides the engine problem mentioned above in the condition description (please read) are that the driver’s side window crank lost the round black handle, which is included and has been temporarily replaced with a plastic knob, and the sliding door, which works perfectly, has a non-working lock. Finally, the rear view mirror fell off and cracked, but it is included. Alll the exterior parts, indicators and mirrors, etc. are good. Four matching white rims and caps... interior was all stripped out, bare metal now. Spare tire and mount included. Short style front seats have a couple of tears but are pretty nice. Engine cover is good, dash and steering wheel are excellent. Odometer has only 5 dials and reads ~19,000 and it may be true, this van spent almost 20 years sitting out of the elements with next to no use according to the previous owner, but this can’t be verified and it may be more, like 119,000... not even sure how many owners it had previously, if we are the third owner or more. Clean title, currently registered and inspected in NY state. Local pick up only. Happy bidding. On Dec-02-17 at 17:01:22 PST, seller added the following information: Was reading over the description and noticed I didn’t explain about the side door lock. The mechanism is whole and complete and fine, it’s only the tumbler that was damaged and would need to be replaced. Also the back door has some holes and paint peeling where the tire mount was, and the side door has a gouge a couple inches long from being parked on the street. This van is physically really nice despite and resto worthy... and it handles really nicely and smooth. The dash had a knob put in at one point (don’t know what for) but is otherwise unmodified and in great shape... The paint is original, the blue, the white, even the three transition pinstripes! In the photos you’ll notice the blue has cloudy smudges everywhere, but it’s just a powdery effect... after it’s washed and sits for a while, a thin, even coating of super fine light, light blue powder forms on its original paint surface and that layer can be smeared around by any contact. Hope I’m describing it well, point is, it’s just a fine dust that wipes off by hand or cloth. Probably just needs a wax. For the age and condition, this van’s a beauty. A bidder wrote asking if the drive shaft was pulled when it was towed. To address that, we didn’t pull the drive shaft because it was a single short slow tow, only brought 30 miles at an average speed of 20mph, max 45mph.
