Blue Book is useless IMO on a van this age in great(if it IS) condition. Blue book does not take into consideration our particular love for the van. Try to find a blue book on a 1973 Bus and then see if you can find one for that amount. Like I said before, I wiuld ask alot of questions about the van first and also do a search of previous posts of it for sale. Good luck. I would like to have a Carat conversion myself.
