99 express Hi Top van

 

Wow, I can't believe I still own this van. $4200 or best offer. Anyone?

 

It cost more to fix then what the insurance co. wants to pay, so they totaled it. Sent me a small check, I sent them engine and trans recipts. they sent me a smaller check. I could have it fixed, but the wife really wants to downsize. I have owned a chevy van now for over 30 years. I'm gonna really miss it. It threw oxygen codes last year, and I replaced all the O2 sensors. With the new side door hinge pins, everything has been running great. When I had the engine out, I took the liberty of using all that room to replace all the brake lines, while I did all four wheels. For being 16 years old the grey leather seats are in real good shape, no cracks, and nothing feels better then turning on the seat heaters after an afternoon of ice fishing or pushing the button and have the third row seat fold down into a 3 section bed. My 84' had the 2 section, this one I can take a nap on while tailgating at the track. I thought about trailer brakes, but with three guys, all the camping gear inside, you could hardly tell the 16' fishing boat was back there. The pictures in the link don't show it but I still have the bumper cover, just a few cracks.
Honestly, if anybody that does body work picks this would it would be an easy flip. I'd drive it across country today, mechanically sound. The back looks bad, but the gasket is still intact and sealing. The creases in the panels take this job out of my league. Although it would be a good excuse to buy that tig machine I always wanted.

 

Am I asking too much? Have the receipts for the engine from the dealer, and the trans shop. Or is this just an unwanted vehicle?
