Subject:      86 Syncro for sale in WA
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="US-ASCII"

Eric:

Okay, point taken and everyone has my apologies for my being unclear. To all

those interested, I am asking $600 for the 86 Syncro with the blown engine. I am trying to get pictures today so they will be available later. Forget about the "best offer" approach I tried earlier. It was a poor approach to selling the van but in my defense I have never tried to sell a vehicle with a blown engine before so I didn't know what to ask. I can give more details to anyone that asks and I will do my best.

Cheers. John 86 Syncro Tacoma, WA
