133,000 miles?  eight years old?  involved in an accident?

I dunno,  I bought an 85 GL with 100k, zero rust, never hit, not even a door
ding, with a bad motor, for 350 bucks.  Even with a full blown overhaul,
thats still only 2500 for a sharp van with a new motor.  I know I'm
comparing a plain jane to a newer synchro camper,  but I think if was going
to spend that kind of money, I would spend a little more and buy a new EV
with a relaible motor and zero miles on the clock.
