a 25k mile, 5-speed 4WD kei van, just for you~



The only person I've ever known to drive one was a 400-lb comic book store owner.

I'm 155-lbs so now you know of two people. How did he physically drive it? There isn't *room* inside the driver's seat for 400-lbs of person. Maybe he was chauffeured around and sat in the back although 400-lbs I'd beyond the weight limit.

This was back in Germany in the late 90s so the van was of that vintage. I wish I could remember the make, but I can't. And I was sort of lying about him being the only one, though he was the only one I knew personally. Those vans were immensely popular in Germany with small businesses for some reason.

Anyways, the seat was small enough, but also flat and very worn out. So I guess he just spilled over.

Holy poo poo, a quote from that thread:

quote:

Sort of bringing this back out of no where, but I hope things are looking up for you Rod. I've had some **** luck over the past couple years myself, so I understand. I had to admit defeat and sell my $12K LSJ motor I had built for $8K[. That was to pay off my bills because I was broke as **** and to buy a used stock LSJ only to get the car back up and running for my crazy rear end ex-girlfriend to total the Cobalt into a Tattoo shop only two months later. Then not even a month after that I hydroplaned in the Integra and backed that into a telephone pole totaling it. After all was said and done, I paid off the rest of my bills with the insurance from the Cobalt and bought a new integra shell to swap everything into. I know that was not nearly as much as you have invested, but you have hung in there strong and that is quite respectable! Props to one of the OG's for sticking in there through thick and thin!

Cobalt guy just wanted to build this car to reconnect with his brother whom he's had a falling out with a long time ago and they haven't spoken since, but brother has died and now Cobalt guy is really sad but doubling down on completing it.

My Parents had the Chevy Blazer version of those, and they sucked. Awful handling, awful ride, felt like you were going to take off at 70mph.

I used to own a 1997 Blazer and it was without a doubt the worst vehicle I've ever owned. Let's see here....
-blew a transmission
-2nd transmission was on its way out when I sold it
-Replaced three fuel pumps (gently caress YOU GM) and finally the harness
-Windshield wipers wouldn't work when it was wet out
-tons of electrical gremlins

This thing looks cool, but the seller's description does not inspire confidence.

I have a 84 merc capri (pretty much a fast back mustang) 5.0 302 5 speed rs model. Needs fuel pump and a main fusible link replaced, flywheel has teeth missing. I've seen and heard it run before the old man passed away. Doesnt have title. And not in the old man's name. Would be perfect for someone wanting to build a race car or drag car I guess. All OG parts and poo poo. Interior is decent. Been sitting most its life so it needs to be cleaned and gone through. Dont have the time, or my license so.
Will sell it, or entrertian me with offers.
