 "Black Beauty" is a 2003 Dodge half ton touring/cruising model (fancy with tall roof) with extensive mobility conversion packageMILES 13,000 (total, actual miles) (excepting apx. one year, these miles were by one owner) Price: 23,900 (will be highly rejuvenated cosmetically and functionally and include warranty General Description This black van with grey interior began as a standard length (not long or short) SLT model that has small 5.2 liter V8 and automatic with overdrive. Began with power and convenience features such as: power windows, locks and mirrors; tilt wheel and cruise control; power drivers seat; stereo; chrome bumpers, grill and fancy trim features inside and out. Goodies Was converted with a very fancy cruising/touring package when new by a major, national custom convertor named "Elk". This included features such as: moderately tall, contoured roof; large fancy side windows; fancy seats; power drivers seat; rear seat folds into a bed; extensive real wood interior trim, such as cabinet doors and overhead pieces; rear ventilation system; extensive storage areas; plus more. Note: this may receive fancy wheels added, as part of our extensive Rejuvenation process. Mobility and Adaptive Features * Ricon power lift: this has a high capacity and a platform long and wide enough to carry most folks in their wheelchairs. This is a unique model called a Klear-View that has a unique platform that allows for it to be nicely long when being utilized for going in and out, but it does not block the view out the side doors when stowed. * Power swinging side doors: this is a feature that is necessary for certain folks who have a level of mobility that allows them to load, drive and unload, with no assistance. For folks who don't need it, there are still benefits of the ease of the open/close process. This van has two small side doors (most folks call these "barn doors") that have power mechanisms added to them to allow them to swing in or out using switches (there likely will also be a wireless remote, but unsure at the time of this writing) * Special floor project: this has what is one of my favorite improvements on wheelchair vans, which is very helpful to the person in the wheelchair and able-bodied folks as well. I consider this feature to be an improvement that most wheelchair vans ought to have, old or new. You see, if you pay close attention to how floors typically are in personal use wheelchair vans, you will notice that they are usually not actually solid, smooth and level. Rather, they are somewhat lumpy, bumpy and not as easy to maneuver a wheelchair on as they can be. This is because the factory metal floor of a van is not actually smooth, it has ridges and contours...plus has a carpet pad which wheelchair wheels sink into a bit, creating resistance to maneuvering. Based on my specifications and design, this floor will be greatly improved above the original floor treatment by removing the existing carpet and pad and then installing a sheet of wood directly over the lumpy, bumpy, contoured metal floor. And it became a smooth, solid, level floor. And then a quality type of commercial vinyl/rubber flooring will be used to cover the wood. This material is tough and easy to clean. This van will have this new flooring package, which notably improves the interior function of the van for everyone. * Anchor points for floor: this has or will have several anchor point areas in the floor * Includes 4 anchor straps for securing wheelchair * Possible wireless remote for side doors and lift (very likely)
Of course, this vans most awesome fact is its absolutely incredibly low original, total miles of 13,000! Its best feature is actually the package of several features, which allows some folks in wheelchairs, if desired or needed, to load, drive and unload themselves with no assistance from another person. We call this one "black beauty", and she certainly is. Status Rejuvenation has begun: I have recently acquired this van and the extensive rejuvenation process has begun, which is carried-out by various professional shops and specialists. If you are interested in securing this van for your future purchase (many of my vans are spoken for in this way prior to completion of rejuvenation) please feel free to call or mail me with any questions |

| NOTE: I am always searching for more vans which are a nice addition to the mix of vans we have to offer. I will post initial information here about each van as I purchase, transform, and then make them available for sale. From the time I purchase a van until my transformation process is completed, averages approximately 4-6 weeks. Please visit this page periodically. Thank you, Rick |

Dear Rick... I want to take this time to let you know how excited I am about the 95 Ford camping van that I bought from you. I just love it!! I truly appreciated your kindness, patience and understanding throughout the whole process. I also appreciate the quality of the van. You were nothing like those typical car salesman. You were friendly, cheerful and not pushy....and still gave me a great deal!!! I will certainly send folks your way. Thanks again! |
