Hi everyone,
i just need some advice about a possible van purchase
the van in question is on ebay
LINK ---> http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=190031557488
its pretty normal looking, boring old van sorta stuff

with one exception, this

thats a 3.8L V6 engine out of a VN commodore
the seller is in sydney, Revesby
im not sure of the suburb but would like to know whether the area has a "reputation"
also he claims to have engineers cert and from what he has written i assume it has had rego since the conversion
anyways, i am looking for something to do trackdays with over summer with the first one being on the 2nd of october
so i would like to be sure this thing is decent
(well, as sure as one can be about something on eBay...)
what would really be super is if someone could maybe check it out for me?
if not, do you think i should let the auction pass through (assuming no-one will bid) and then go for a day-trip on the weekend and check it out?
either way, i will probably call the bloke tomorrow and ask a few things
is there anyway that i can check that the engineers cert is straight-up
can i get a number for it and call the RTA to verify its legit?
the guy seems to know what he is on about from the description so thats re-assuring :D
anyways, i value (most of) your opinions
and am waiting with baited breathe/keyboard ;)
