Looks like they put the older style nose on a 08 van. The older vans never had 2 large grab handles on the A pillars. They must have crashed the 08 nose and the older style are a lot cheaper to replace it with.

And agreed, why is this van even showing up here.

Yep - "He may be a bot" comment fueled my curiosity - his profile must only go back 500 posts or Threads...every single one (yes, I waisted some of my time) ends with "on Ebay" >>> not one post, comment, or contribution other than the initial sale Ad.
Feel violated

At least it was from a distance. .

I thought about bringing it up here when he was banned on expo, but since it was only vans I didn't.

Looking at the eBay URL I see a tracking string after. So maybe he gets affiliate commission if someone buys it from his ljnk?

Glad I'm not the only one that thought something was odd.

I'm betting they know and he has just never been trouble so they've left him alone. He/She/It has been around for years. I've never seen a post other than for sale ads. Odd thing it he/she/it 'thanked' something I posted once. I remember that distinctly because it was out of character.

So, as for a bot, I don't think so. He/she/it is obviously laughing at baiting us at this point.

The description says 4 vans for sale which matches my count of 4 different vans in the photos. The important question is if you're getting all 4 for $5,500, or just 1 of your choice.
