Crow build?
There's been a guy who's down in SD somewhere who seems to be tearing vans down, repainting them in toyota colors (I've seen at least one, maybe two
very similar vans in that toyota "cement" color) and re-building them to "as new" with anywhere between 150-250K miles. A few of them pop up on CL here and there.
Kinda wonder what he ends up being able to sell them for by the time all of his/their labor is accounted for. Figuring tearing down a van, prep, paint, putting it back together, fluid flushes (if things don't need replaced altogether), and adding any "extras"... Probably pretty easy to sink $20K in just parts before factoring any labor or base cost of acquiring the van. Does he actually replace or rebuild any engine/trans components?
Presume he tries to get 50-70K for them?
