I'll post some pictures - hopefully tomorrow (19 June). When I have enough I'll put this in eBay as well.
Use it for parts or as a fixer-upper. Get it for your teenager who's taking shop classes.
Needs some engine work, but transmission shifts smoothly and works well. Equipped with 5.9 Magnum, overdrive automatic, stereo/tape player, a/c. Radio works, a/c doesn't (may be just low on refrigerant).
Some rust but no worse than other 20-year-old B-vans. No obvious dents. Good glass all around. Good doors and hood except minor rust on cargo doors. Glass and grill good. Front bumper good except for minor dent/scratches. Aftermarket rear bumper has a bend in it. Has nice full length DeeZee aluminum running boards. Good ladder rack on roof; I'll remove if you don't want it.
It has a leak in the cooling system (I think it's the upper radiator hose) that causes it to overheat after a few miles. It runs rough especially when cold, since this is a new problem after overheating, I think an electronic ignition or fuel-syetem component got heat-damaged. I have not had time to investigate what it exactly is.
Noise indicates bearing problems in rear axle.
I wanted to fix it up - it would have been good practice for restoring my '74 Chrysler - but I've got too many irons in the fire (including another B-van with a cooling system that needs fixing) and not enough cash. I called several wrecking yards around Omaha and the best figure I got was $300. They can't give full-on retail and stay in business, especially since to them it's worth only its weight in metal. So I'd rather find a buyer who wants it for oneself.
