Yeh the seller is a bit difficult his add is a joke of a discription conversion van ready to sell period.
He did check a few of the category titles.
Initially I email piliminary ?s and requesting images of underneath body for rust,engine/sticker of air filter for engine size and door panels storage some vans had storage others had a useless zipper.
his Posted images where a joke.van in shade not the usele front to back images, basically crummie images.
Called the guy the other day he said he bought it from I quote “ a old white Guy from N GA” didn’t interrupt as racist because he claims to be a musician.
I’m curious what the van was used for he say’s transporting instruments and clients to and from gigs. No towing of another vehicle.
Learyness starts here:
I ask what type of oil have you been using he says unknown he pays for oil changes so I assume jiffy lube conventional oil which I believe recycled used oil correct?isn’t a deal breaker like the 5.3 doe’snt require a synthetic like my car doe’s.
Anyone purchasing tires at walmart must need there head examined but he says fairly new. I always order decent tire online like Goodrich or compreable.
I ask about him transporting people he did admit they did smoke cigaretts however he states there is no order of smoke, I think you smoke one cig in a car it lasts forever musicians are usually smoking weed which stinks worst than cigs or cigars ,
he also states no animales where ever in the van like smelly cat or dog piss.
He claims there are no leaks and he will run engine for a while then inspect.
I have been on the lookout for a decent LS style 03+ conversion for over 4 years that’s reasonably close unbelievable that they are this hard to find.
I did receive images of the regular GM surface rust (I’ve been burned on a previous vehicle that was used in upstate new york which had major rust underneath.
Either this Guy is egnorant or he knows how to flip cars.
Yes the one way rentel is a good suggestion, a bus ride is around $25. to airport from there I can navigate the city w/ public transit.
The other van I’m considering is in norther Missippie in the middle of nowhere much harder to get around mite have to offer up some fuel $ for this purchase however his purchase price is kindof high.
Remember this is a tow vehicle for my main boating vessel exposed to salt water & parked at a public boat launch for 3-4 days at a time so I treat either of these vans as a disposable body for a few years then get another.
