I'm bidding on a van in NE Philly (Huntingdon valley). The seller seems to be a sorta surplus/third party liquidation house so they know very little about the van's history. They have excellent feedback but other than telling me the specs they can't really say much more than, "look, a white van."

I'm looking for someone who can go put their hands and eyes on it. I don't mind dents and scratches, and I don't mind some mild rust, but I don't want any cancer. If someone could go spend 15 minutes with it, start it up and make sure it runs smoothly, drive it, and maybe even shoot a little 15 second video of it starting up with their phone, I could make it worth your while with a wee paypal donation of a negotiable amount.

My parents live around there and I grew up in that area, but no longer live there.

I believe 92dxman lives in that area.

Weird... I bought my van from a dealer in Huntington Valley back in 1998...

92dxman... let me know if/when you're going over there. I live pretty close by (my mother lives in H-V).

Tell you what, you can both go over and check it out. I'll donate some to each of you. Two opinions are better than one.

You'll need to log in to post.
