Home and Auto Anyone need, or know someone who needs a vehicle? - Page 6

I was going to give my old minivan to someone here on the Planet who was in desperate need of a vehicle, but apparently that person is unable to pick it up, and I can't leave it where it's sitting forever.

So here's the deal...if someone here, preferably a regular, needs it, or knows someone who does, they can have it.

The only conditions are that you will have to convince me that whomever takes it is going to actually try to fix it up and use it, and not just take it and scrap it out. I could do that, but I think the thing still has some decent life left in it. It's currently located in St Joseph so that's where it will need to be picked up, and I need to be assured that it will be picked up in a timely manner without any hassles.

Obviously if it's free, it means it has issues...but none of them at this point are fatal. The major one being that transmission has a leak, but works fine still as long as the fluid level is maintained. It needs a battery immediately. It also has an intermittent electrical issue that can be repaired by someone who knows how to follow instructions, which end of screwdriver to use, and how to use a soldering pencil. There are some other minor issues but I'll go through those if someone decides they want it.

On the flip side, it drives good and has always been a strong runner for me. I just drove it down to St Joe two weeks ago with no problems at all.

Anyone interested?

I think I have a taker at this point. Not sure I'd give this thing to anyone's mom though...lol. I might go to hell for that.

If not let me know man. Thanks!

You may get the van - someone else may - either way - somebody's taking a good cocking in the ass over this crap.

Does the same rule apply for Mother-In-Laws?
