Many pictures missing, though the clean looking exhaust is a hint that things could be pretty clean under the lid. If so, why no pictures of the engine? Unless they didn't have time, but I doubt it. If the engine compartment was as clean as the rest of the van appears to be, I would have posted the pictures. Probably a not so good re-spray, though they mention 'paint strip' in the description. The lower sliding door track doesn't look as if it has been touched since long before the paint job. If I were shopping, this would stop me looking at this one. Would be great to have a list member look at this. What a nice clean look, inside and out. Gas cap looks like hell. Love those stripes!
