Just purchased my next build, 2004 Chevrolet AWD, just 40k on the meter. Might need some tires as I think they may be the original's. Hope it's a good one, $2,900 purchase, is this a fair price?, it is a window van.
Got my plane ticket purchased, Bus route on the other end (134 miles from the air port) and map quest showing tire stores to auto parts in the area just in case. Got the receipt back for the purchase cash, hope to have her back on the 22nd of the month.
Kind of stoked to pick the new girl up:1888fbbd:
Just returned from a 5 day trip with our van, got it all tucked away for winter, but now I hope to start this build if the Van feels right.
Wow that is a steal of a price, as I was just about to list my 2008 AWD savanna up in Canada next to Alaska for 8500
they are great vans though, you will enjoy it
Have you thought about putting in a folding bed from a VW? I'm going to check out the sizes but it'd be great to just bolt one in and not have a static platform taking up all that room.
no sulking - you got a deal too!
decent examples of the AWD Express are becoming more and more difficult to find. We paid a bit of a premium for our '09, but honestly I was happy to find one.
A fair price! Are you kidding? If you're not happy, I'll give you that plus $100 for your trouble and come get it. Yes, I really am that nice of a guy.
My gosh, I feel like a fool! I just recently bought my 2004 Express AWD with 130k on the odometer for $7,000!!!! That's a hell of a find man, looking forward to seeing what she looks like!
The trip to and picking up our (new to us) van is over. I always think everyone should watch the movie "Craigslist Joe" just to understand most of us are able to do more not only with less but with the help of other's as we come in contact with them in our travels. Sometimes we may not understand what the world has to offer if we don't reach out.
As always the end score or product seems to be the reward, but the people we meet form who we are.
The Van, it is a great one! The listing agent was not.
Just a simple Chevrolet Express,
But this is the money shot! The on-line auction never listed it as AWD, a simple run of the GM Vin number gave it away, humans make error or are just a simple get the task over with as a federal employee who cares? Make's for a great deal sometimes!
On the GSA site at any time there is 8-20 vans, many a low miles with the clocks reading under 20K, this one at 40K but the AWD options ended up being a great value at $2,900.
To some they may see that employee that just don't give a sh_t approach to their job, like in this case shaker can spraying over the decal's on the van.
Most buyers would see this as "I'll have to pay to get the doors painted or a least touched up"! I have a much :drool: different take on it then you may.
After doing these auctions for many years, I'm overjoyed at seeing the paint bomb attacked, this is just the decals removed (pulled off), first step.
In this case you get to see just who had her.:Wow1:
We all can see the :violent-smiley-031: dis-taste and the way it makes a van like this look, but I always ask questions as I encounter new things to tackle, I hope you can learn from this little trick!
You can make the paint bomb job go away! And it is a simple process, these are the tools!
Windex, a razor blade, small piece of very fine wet sand paper, cordless drill to buff slow so you don't heat the paint or damage the clear coat, and than it's-------
Like new!:luxhello:
I like just because others pass on what they don't know, and the bid stay's low.
