I just got a bunch of work done to this van at CVI automotive anticipating an epic summer of hot springs and camping but plans have changed.. My girlfriend and I are going to Europe this summer. Turns out I won't be able to enjoy this sweet van!

Almost new Yokohama Geolander A/T-S tires. TONS of meaty tread ready to eat those logging roads or snow apart!
Almost new brake pads all around (90% remaining)
199,000km on the odometre, but the engine was just rebuilt a few thousand km ago. New head gasket and whole new head put on as well as pistons machined. The compression is awesome!
Brand new Radiator! Just drove up to the top of Seymour Mountain with the pedal to the floor and the engine tempurature gauge never wavered past 1/4! Definitely a summer machine.
The 4WD locking hubs were just serviced.
Passed Aircare with flying colours! - Diesel opacity reading was 7.06, 11.10 is the average reading, max allowable 30.00.

The van was also lifted 3 inches by it's Japanese owners before import to Canada.

This van has sliding windows which is apparently rare.. They're pretty sweet.. Let your kids or your dog hang out the side windows?
Comes with JVC KD-AR270 CD deck. The wiring harness for aftermarket radios is already installed so it's super simple if you want to install a fancier iPod deck or somthing (can show you how)

SOLD!

Nice looking engine and the sliding windows are great! The lights look older tha 91, did you replace them? Also not to be rude but the lift looks like no more than cranked torsion bars. Do you have pics of how it's done?
