Not for lack of trying, I just got outbid. Showing up with $2500 cash (the asking price) the first available showing time wasn’t good enough. The guy wanted to do two days of showing it, and collect offers over email and sell to the highest. At least 10 people came when I was there so I don’t doubt there was a long list of possible buyers, I’m just not used to people using Craigslist backwards. I offered $3500 because he said that’s what he was hoping for, and still got outbid.

Oh well. liked the van a lot, but I guess it wasn’t meant to be. The 351M would’ve needed some work to not be a total turd anyways.

I really wonder what could be wrong with the engine that’s causing a screaming sound

I’m not surprised. The asking price was too cheap. Plus the van was really cool and the ad was really good. Sorry you missed out on it.

Yeah, it was as good in person too. I’m just gonna keep my eye out for something in the same ballpark

Whenever I’ve sold a vehicle it’s first come with the asking price cash, first sold to.

I sold my Jeep to a nice old guy who drove from 1.5 hours away who showed up 30 minutes before 2 guys from 3 hours away. I sold / signed it off to him just as they pulled up. He sold it to the 2 guys for an extra $1500, right in front of my house. They wanted it that bad I guess. No skin off my back. They went to the bank and I already had my cash and had the JK taken off my insurance.
