This is what we call the good, the bad & the ugly! It's a 2000 Chevy van loaded w/ith four leather captain seats w/ lumbar, power everything, 80% tread on tires. It's in good mechanical shape w/ a newly rebuilt engine with less than 20,000 miles. It blew a piston at 92,000 miles and had to be rebuilt from the bottom up. The exterior is good although it has some issues. Originally purchased as a full top of the line conversion van by Explorer. It had all the low flaring trim all around it but was removed as it was just plastic & wears out after so many years. You will see all the rivet holes around the lower body frame although they are very small. The rear bumper has been backed into & it shows. However, I have had this looked at & the brackets are not bent so it can be unbolted & another one bolted on for under $300.00. There are some minor scratches, dings associated w/ it's age but nothing outside of normal.
The interior is clean but front drivers seat shows the most wear on the leather. The wood trim in the back has faded from, I believe, heat as it has spent most of it's life in Florida. Overall it's in very good condition w/ a rear sofa that automatically folds down to a flat bed. All window treatments are in perfect shape. That's a basic description & the pictures will show most of that.
I'll tell you what the van is & isn't in my honest opinion. This is good solid transportation for a church group, volunteer organization such as meals on wheels, or a large family with several children. It can accommodate six passengers at once w/ a driver. I have driven it up north on several trips & would have no concerns. It needs some TLC but mostly cosmetic. It's a nice ride for long trips & has the ability to let you stretch out in back if so desired. What it's not anymore is a state of the art, top of the line, luxury cruiser. It is 12 yrs old & shows some but still has a lot of life left especially mechanically if someone wishes to give it that little attention it needs.
With that said, this is going NO RESERVE to whoever bids the highest. N.A.D.A book value is around $4,000 without the conversion!! You are welcome to come take a look w/ a scheduled appt. Please contact through email to set that up. I do have it for sale locally so I am reserving the right to pull the ad if it sells during this auction. I would love to see someone get this inexpensively & do some good for their community. Happy bidding & good luck to all!!

Race Recap: 2013 Twelve Hours of Sebring, cakewalk up front, grindfest out back [w/spoilers]
Tue, 19 Mar 2013This year's 12 Hours of Sebring wasn't exactly a foregone conclusion because we're still talking about racing, and anything can happen when the speeds are as high as the adrenaline and the desire. But we're still talking about Audi bringing it's two top-spec racers - and its huge budget and its nearly neurotic attention to detail - to a race that it uses as a test bed for The 24 Hours of Le Mans and as a way to open the endurance racing season with a victory.
Besides, 12 hours is a long time, especially at Sebring, and things didn't go all Audi's way. On top of that, although it was a pretty quiet race, behind the Audis things got even grimier, with plenty of battles, plenty of mechanical issues, and the new BMW Z4 GTE and Viper GTS-R being race tested. Oh, and that brand new chromed-out DeltaWing...
Fewer than 1 in 3 Chevy dealers earn right to initially sell C7 Corvette
Mon, 01 Apr 2013Looking to make the launch of the 2014 Corvette Stingray as efficient as possible, Chevrolet will be limiting the numbers of its dealers that can sell the all-new coupe and convertible. According to Automotive News, sales of the C7 Corvette will initially be limited to less than a third of Chevy's total dealership network when the 'Vette goes on sale this summer.
Only 900 dealers out of more than 3,000 locations nationwide will be allowed to sell the new Corvette at first, and the reason for this is so that there are no shortages at dealers that can actually get the cars sold. The article says that the 900 dealerships chosen represented 80 percent of total Corvette sales in 2012.
Some of the requirements dealers had to make to get initial allocation of Stingray sales include having sold at least four Corvettes in 2012 and having a Corvette Stingray specialist who will be required to have gone through a training session costing more than $2,000 per attendee. Once demand for the 2014 Corvette Stingray begins to subside - approximately six to nine months after it goes on sale - then allocation could open up to more dealers, but the report indicates this could happen following the 2014 model year.
GM profits threatened by glut of pickups
Wed, 05 Dec 2012Automotive News reports that General Motors may slash production or ramp up discounts in order to deal with an oversupply of pickup trucks. GM currently has more than double the standard supply of pickups, and the vehicles are threatening to dampen the automaker's profits for 2013. Typically, automakers try to sustain a 60- to 75-day supply of vehicles, but GM is currently loaded with a 139-day supply, as of last month. At the end of November, the automaker was sitting on 245,853 units.
The manufacturer says that it will adjust production accordingly before laying any incentives on the profitable pickups. Even so, there's some concern that the inventory swell could hurt the roll-out of the next-generation Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra. GM actually began slowly stepping back production in August, but it's clear the company will take further action as it heads toward the end of the year and into the next. Analysts predict the automaker could reduce pickup manufacturing by nearly half in the first quarter of 2013.
That still may not be enough to keep GM from laying extra cash on the Silverado and GMC Sierra. While the company's incentive spending was down in November compared to the same month in 2011, both the Ram 1500 and Ford F-150 saw double-digit percentage increases in sales last month while the Silverado and Sierra numbers slid compared to a year prior. Incentive spending could help move more trucks and add some balance to the GM inventory surge.
