so my friend Andy, lead guitarist for the local metal band, is selling his band van to me. I went to test drive it today, and the only thing that's wrong with it, is the defroster doesn't work and it leaks a little antifreeze.
it's a 1988 ford econoline. E-150. it's got a V-6 4.9 liter engine. 147,000 original miles, and the engine was rebuilt a few years ago and that has about 30,000 miles on it.
That's the van. No, I'm not in this picture (to avoid confusion)

My first car was (and still is) a used Chevy Lumina. I've had it a few years and it runs pretty well despite having over 100k miles on it

My first car (jeep) is a 1995 Cherokee. It's in good shape. Brand new tires, Brakes, Oil, Speakers, Muffler, and more. It drives real fucking good. It's just an awesome jeep. Got it for $1,700 when it should've been sold for over 5 grand.

My first car was a 2004 Chevy Monte Carlo SS.....It came with "A hardcore system" as the guys selling it called it...Really nice car everything worked and was in good shape, worked out a deal and got it for $2500 and some yardwork xD

haha. He wants to set a price on the van. o.< The only problems are
A. The antifreeze leaks
and
B. The defroster doesn't work
It's pretty old and pre-used before he got it.
What should I offer? =/☜(* x *)☞FOOL ON COOL GENERATION

I'm not sure. I believe it's a ford (it looks like it). I'm going to get info on it later before I go to test it.

Well $1200 seems like a fair price. But try and talk him down.
You should also find out how much it would cost to fix the problems with it.

Oh well I forgot, it's USD. Car market might be cheaper where you are too.
I don't know a hell of a lot about cars anyway.

My first car is a 92 Buick(something) It runs great. Only thing wrong is the aliment. But that is my fault for going to fast on ice and hitting a curb.

Oh and I was thinking, wouldn't a van like this use up a lot of petrol?? Do you need a car this big?
You could get a smaller car in the same condition but cheaper and better on fuel.
