Seems like a pretty good deal if its a clean van.

"Floor is lowered by 6 inches."

OK, so what's that mean, practically speaking? 4x4 not possible? Less clearance? Won't have room for a battery box? etc.

"Has heavy duty frame for handicap use."

How would this be different from a regular frame on this vehicle?

Any concerns anyone would have starting with a base van that's this old? I doubt we'll go after this one, but it never hurts to ask.

I looked at this van this morning. It is really rough and I would NOT consider it even with the low miles.

Would be a bad 4X4 conversion candidate because of the floor and other frame modifications.
