Hi, my name is Cara, i am a 13 year old Dodge Caravan. My parents say i have to go because i just sit around all day doing nothing. I have been around the block a few times, (230,000 Miles) but does this make me a bad person? I always do what is expected of me, at times even traveling rediculous distances, without complaining, or just downright refusing. I always do exactly as i am told. I have new shoes and glasses. I could come live with you for $1750.00, although sadly i have heard my parents talking, and i know they would take less, which i can't believe, because i even have a current VA state inspection. I occasionally need to be rehydrated, about once every other week (trans fluid) but even when this occurs, i don't stop doing what i'm told. I should just stop and sit there until i get what i want, but i don't know.....i just can't bring myself to do it, i just keep moving along. If you have any interest in me, just e-mail my parents. I'm really not sure just how much longer i can take being ignored all day. Thank you, hope to get to know you really soon.

Love,
Cara

The US has a 25 year rule, kind of like Canada's 15 year rule. If it's an 89, he's got 5 years to go. There might be some work getting things sorted out re: the actual act of importation, though.

That's a little more than new paint, it looks really clean and completely restored. Maybe it's not worth $10,000 but it's obviously more than just a "beat-rear end truck" with a coat of krylon.

I realize this probably just means he had it painted the same color. But it puts some strange images in my head. It's the "off a" part that does it. Like scraping the paint off a WRX, dissolving it, and putting it on an Accord. Or maybe he just sideswiped a blue WRX. Custom blue highlights on custom-shaped body panels.

Except it's an '84 Ram. That's not worth $5k restored, much less $10k. The 80's GM trucks will go for fair amounts, but not the Rams. They look like hell and there's nothing special about the engines.

The only 80's Dodge trucks that MIGHT be worth 10K are the lil red wagons and I've seen good looking and very nice versions of those for 6-8K on several occasions. A loving slant 6 model truck with non original paint? Hahahahaha $2500 tops.

That's a great deal for one in that good of condition. The M35's last FOREVER and will run on anything in a liquid state. I've always wanted one and would buy this if I had the extra cash.

The tires are a bitch to change, but everything else on it is a breeze. And if you need parts you can hit up the local National Guard base.

1993 Lada Niva.

This cool little 4x4 came to me without title. I am selling it as-is, no warranty, paperwork, etc.

Body is very nice with only one spot of rust on the buttom of the tailgate.

Original motor has been swapped for a fuel injected Fiat 2liter twincam (original motor included with the sale). Transmission likes to jump out of 3rd gear, but a spare good transmission is also included.

Overall the truck is in good shape, but as all vehicles of this age, it deserves TLC. Drives very well. Not comfortable for long trips.

This would make a unique trail rat, or a promo car, or??

Low reserve. Sale is final.
