about |

Where else but EBay are you going
to find one of these, we have six! This is a very rare van. This is the last
year of the Aerostar and this is an extended model cargo van in
all-wheel-drive with the 4.0 motor and just 89K original miles. There
are simply none of these are around anywhere. They were great vans and
will run forever if you keep up on them. This was a fleet maintained
vehicle and it's in good shape for the age. It's been serviced,
detailed, and is ready to get right to work! |

exterior |
|
The paint and body on this rig are
fair, not going to win any awards, but it's presentable for work and
it's very inexpensive. It's been in Colorado since day one and we
don't salt the roads here. There's no body rust at all. The body is straight
except the left side rear 1/4 which has a scuff along the big flat
section of the body. It has recently been waxed
and has pretty good gloss. The bumpers are straight and the windshield
is good, no cracks or bad chips. The wheel caps are new. The tires have
pretty good tread, not new, but not ready to replace.
There's some chips, scratches
and marks about the body, passenger door edges are worn and the
passenger front door edge has a chippy spot. There's a few little scuffs
about the lower sections from parking. White shows the least wear and
this guy has been well kept. It looks the mileage perfect. The photos
document everything, npt a bad ol' van! |

interior |
|
The interior is just fine for the
age. It
does not have the passenger seat, presumably was removed to haul special
cargo. They can be purchased very inexpensively on car-part.com if you
need one. It'll bolt right in. It smells pleasant, doesn't reek of smoke It has in/out wear on the
drivers entry carpet, little stains here and there. The
upholstery is good, drivers seat is pretty nice. There's no dash cracks, everything works,
really not much to break though. It's missing a trim piece on the
passenger door, drivers door panel is 'bolted' in.
The cargo space is very clean as
well. It's fully caged which is nice to know you cargo won't get stolen
or shift and break the glass. The flooring is in good condition.
Doors open and close easily, trunk struts work perfect. |

This van runs and drives great! It
has the bigger 4.0 motor which they put in the all-wheel-drive models.
These vans are actually mostly rear wheel drive but when they sense the
rear wheels slipping they engage the front wheels for full time 4x4.
They were ahead of their time when built, got decent fuel economy and
the 4.0 models had plenty of power. It's a 160hp motor which for an
empty cargo van is quite peppy.
This van has been under fleet
maintenance and great service its' whole life. We've inspected, serviced
and detailed it and it needs nothing. The motor runs nice and quiet, it
starts right up, idles smooth, drives straight, steering is tight,
really a very civilized driving vehicle for a cargo rig. Note the fully
insulated cargo space which actually makes it a lot quieter than some
cargo vehicles.
The oil and filter are new,
transmission fluid and filter have been changed, the brakes are over 1/2 life, no wet leaks and no weird noises. The battery
is an optima battery which gives credit to the service it had, this is
probably a $150 battery, they obviously kept up on it. These vans
are good for over 200k easy, so you've got a long ways to go yet. Fly in
and drive home anywhere! |

sunny Parker, Colorado has been in business for 15 years and sold over 9,500
vehicles. We're a Mom, Pop + Son shop, family owned and operated. Michael
Alex (Pop) has been in the automobile business for nearly 40 years and Son

|
Vehicle Inspection + Service |
|
Buyer reserves right to an inspection
before purchase is finalized. We
service everything we sell and make sure our vehicles are safe. We're not
perfect, but we're darn good. We don't sell new or perfect cars. We sell
good cars at exceptional value. We change the oil and filter in every
vehicle, diesels get new fuel filters too. We know you expect us to be
reasonable and we expect the same of you. |
|
Payment |
|
We're easy to get along with,
but we need to know if you need special payment accommodation before you
purchase. Our terms are flexible, so if you need time to either pickup
the vehicle or extended payment terms all you need is ask.
Fine print:
Successful bidder must contact us within 2 days of the close of the auction,
and must submit a deposit of $500 within 3 days. Remaining balance is to be
paid within 10 days of the close of the auction. We accept Paypal (For Down
Payments Only), Master Card, Discover, Visa, Debit-Cards, Bank Wire
Transfers, Money Order, Cashiers Check, Cash in Person, and you can call
with any other offers. We're very easy to get along with. |
|
Delivery/Shipping |
|
Pick it up: We
regularly pick up people at Denver International Airport (DEN) free of
charge and bring them to the lot for pickup. The airport is
about 35 minutes from Parker. We do not offer pickup on Sunday!! There
are no additional charges for pickup.
Ship it:
We have shipped over 400 vehicles with Diamond Express Transportation
without a single problem. We can ship COD or work it into the financing
and/or deal. We don't make any money on shipping. Our contact's name
is Jason or Joe @ 719.593.7770. Most quotes are between $550 and $750
depending on the size of the vehicle and the distance. Shipping usually
takes about 10 days from the time we are paid to delivery at your door.
Kansas, Wyoming, New Mexico and Salt lake cost roughly $350-$400 for smaller
vehicles, slightly more for trucks. If you want an Excursion to go 1900
miles to up-state New York don't expect a $500 quote. We'd be happy to get
you a quote by calling us at 303.841.5377. |

Financing Options |
|
Masters can obtain financing
for as low as 5.99% interest with $0 down for 60 months on vehicles 2002 and
newer, 48 months on 2001 and older for local residents. We can
provide advice and assistance for out of state financing. This is of course
based on approved credit. Please feel free to call with any questions about
financing or about pre-approvals. (303)-841-5377. We deal mostly with credit
unions and good credit is recommended.
There are several online
companies that offer financing as well, just Google vehicle financing or
auto loans. If you have good credit chances are your local credit union is
the best way to go. We can explain this if you call. At
5.99% with $0 down for 60 months, each $1,000 costs you roughly $19.32 per
month. You can also calculate your payment by clicking this link:

Dealer
Disclosure (more fine print you should probably read) |
|
We do our very best to
describe the vehicles as they really are and the options they have, though
everyone has a different opinion of what a condition might be. Please
examine all the photos carefully and read the full text of the
advertisement. Masters reserves the right to sell the vehicle at any
time before a deposit has been left on the vehicle, even when the reserve
has been met. Masters also reserves
the right to end the auction early. We sell many of our vehicles before the
end of the auction. Feel free to call with any questions.
It is our experience and
our volume that allows us to sell vehicles at lower prices than most
businesses on EBay or off, but please know that the phrase "You get what you
pay for." is constant in both the real world and the car business. All
vehicles are sold "AS IS" unless otherwise specified. Local residents of
Colorado must pay taxes at our dealership, but will not have to pay them
again when going to register the vehicle. There is a $199 transfer and
handling fee for local residents only. It costs us more money to sell
vehicles locally and this fee is non-negotiable. Out of state buyers are charged no
extra fees at all, what you bid is what you pay.
Again, all vehicles are for
sale locally, and before the end of the auction. Just because you are the
high bidder doesn't mean you have the vehicle reserved. EBay allows us the
option of ending auctions early because all vehicle are for sale at any
point during the auction. If you are concerned, the buy it now option is
always a good idea. In very rare instances, (once or twice in over a
thousand transactions), the vehicle is being sold locally while someone has
pressed the buy it now. You're welcome to call before you bid, we thank you,
Happy EBaying! |
