I care, not worth my time otherwise. I'm not paying to have it towed to Lethbridge.

I Copied and pasted the old listing (http://forums.beyond.ca/st/192661/fs-1990-red-gmc-safari-sidewinder-conversion/) (yes it was listed here before for $1300obo in October). At that time, I had started it with a brand new battery, drove it around my cul-de-sac and parked it again. Since that time I have removed the new battery, to keep it inside to avoid it getting a dead cell from sitting in the cold.

No it does not come with that battery, sorry for the confusion.


Ok everyone here's the deal..
I started it two weeks ago and parked it in my driveway (I can prove this if need be). This time it did not run as well as it did in October, maybe it was too cold, condensation in the gas... I don't know, but in october it ran just fine.

Heres a list of those who pm'd with a short description of the message. The van goes to the first person who will TOW the vehicle away. I don't want to waste mine or anyone elses time putting a battery in the van to see if it will start/run/drive home . I'm giving this away to someone competent enough to fix any minor running issue to ensure a good vehicle gets used, not scrapped. It was my fathers van and has sentimental value which is why I was hesitant in the first place to give it to the Kidney Foundation (aka Pick-n-pull). As a show of faith towards anyone who has it towed, give me the receipt and I will donate the same amount to the Alberta Cancer Foundation/Tom Baker Cancer Centre, as I was planning on donating the proceeds of whatever it "sold for" back in October.

Focus - will take if it will run/start work with a battery
VWBloke - interested
Dren - will take if it will run/start work with a battery
dieselpower91 - interested
whitexboi69 - will take if it will run/start work with a battery

onehawtrex - 3xPM! lol
misterrick - interested
stevo 27 - if it runs

If your name is on the list, let me know if you want it as is - where is.. if your name is not on the list it will be added in the same order it is received until the van is gone.

My guess is you both are acting like tools and since he wants to give it to someone who isn't one you both wont get it.

This has sentimental value to him so he wants it to go to someone who will take care of it.
