Vehicle Detail

THIS IS A 1996 CHEVY ASTRO CARGO VAN. I AM THE ORIGINAL OWNER PURCHASED NEW FROM DEALER IN 1996. MECHANICS SPECIAL BECAUSE TRANSMISSION BEGAN TO SLIP AND TRANSMISSION WAS REMOVED FROM VEHICLE FOR REBUILD. MECHANIC FRIEND REMOVED AND DISASSEMBLED TRANSMISSION THEN FELL ILL. TRANSMISSION IS CURRENTLY IN A BOX IN THE CARGO AREA OF THE VAN WAITING FOR RE BUILD AND RE INSTALLATION. I WOULD NOT BE SELLING VAN IF FRIEND WAS HEALTHY ENOUGH TO COMPLETE THE JOB. VAN HAS ALWAYS BEEN RELIABLE AND CURRENTLY RUNS GOOD AND A/C WORKS ALSO. MILEAGE SHOWN IS ACTUALLY MUCH LESS BECAUSE SINCE ABOUT 1997, THE SPEEDOMETER HAS RUN AT TWICE NORMAL SPEED AND SHOWING TWICE ACTUAL SPEED. FOR EXAMPLE WHEN IT READS 60 MPH, YOU ARE REALLY GOING 30 MPH. SO IT HAS ADDED 2X MILEAGE ON TO THE ODOMETER. IT WILL OBVIOUSLY NEED TO BE TOWED BUT ANYONE WITH TRANSMISSION KNOWLEDGE CAN REPAIR AND RE INSTALL IT. HAS THE USUAL SCRATCHES AND DENTS FOR A VEHICLE ITS AGE BUT ALWAYS BEEN A RELIABLE WORK TRUCK. PICK UP ONLY. CLEAR NJ TITLE.
