WOW - When 32yrs old I'm sure I was already looking at the reflection in the mirror questioning the change(s)...Don't believe that rig looks any different than when it came out of it's '92 conversion. IMO, That's an exceptional find at a great price.

The term "time capsule" gets thrown around a lot in the used vehicle market, but I think this van falls into that category.

I agree, it will not last long. I wish the first 32 years were that easy on me

Looks like this one is still available. "cryptocurrency ok" - is that a red flag?

I would say probably not given the timing - crypto is in a bull run. However, I didn't see that mention in the classified ad. Maybe they removed it?

Looks like the price dropped to $13,900 - seems like a killer deal.

Yes it does, and that's the "asking price". Probably just wants it gone. Would love to see a few more interior pics.

"cryptocurrency ok" is there in the ad - on the right side, under "transmission".

Ok, I see it now. I scanned the body of the ad where that info normally resides.

Either way, meet the seller and pay cash if the crypto payment option isn't your thing. Ad has a phone number, you could call/text and request some more photos.

I think that is an old posting. That van seems to have sold last year:

I swear I've seen that van around for sale 3 or 4 times. Keeps popping back up.
