1993 SMB - Seattle - $6,250

Unaffiliated

I was interested in this van so I sent a mechanic to check it out. Turns out it's:

1. Pretty much rusted to death

2. Engine is missing a cylinder

3. Has a leak in the AC line

4. Drive shaft is bad

I was near buying a ticket to fly out and get it at this price but the fixes scare me. It may be a good buy if any of you are more mechanically inclined.

You're welcome for the $100 inspection if you end up buying this.

I have two little fridge raiders. Damn rugrats cost me tons in groceries. Wife says I'm a bit of a fridge raider too, but just the basement fridge mostly.
