G-man posted the CL ad (THANKS G-man), and the combo of windows, 8-door, V8/auto and that it was fairly close even though it was LA and the reasonable price all conspired to lure me in. It helps that I have many of the parts needed to bring this one back.
So I emailed the seller and he was intelligent and honest. NOT the stereotypical CL flake at all!
I had the money and the trailer, I just needed to have a friend help out with a truck, since mine needs some leaks fixed and had just done a long trip.
So JD and I set out Sat. morning and visited my brother, then went over to the seller's house a couple miles away and bought and loaded the van. Gotta thank Robert again for all the extras, and the great deal on a soon to be great van!
Here are some pictures.
