4x4 Van
So, all the 4x4 van owners and those with a lot of knowledge of them, does this sounds like a decent deal?

From: gravel road ONTARIO
if that vehicle still had the stock front axle under it and body was still good that price would be just about right.
that front axle(if it is a Ford) is a closed knuckle/drum brake front axle, and with those hubs its pre 1976 . most likely it is a low pinion front axle. they used the exact same locking hubs on dana 44 and dana 60 up to 1975
this van should have come with a dana highpinion 44 front axle w/disc brakes and a lot smaller locking hub.
I have 2 dana 44 low pinion front axles 73 and a 75, sell you both for 500, or I have 1 dana 60 low pinion front axle(75 crewcab) for $600 .
good luck.....................4wd vans are very cool!!!

The guy sounds like a tool
Maintenance work on your vehicle doesn't increase the value, thats maintenance, you're supposed to do it
The van looks ok in the pics but you'd have to look at it more closely to see how much rust there is, I would be suspect of 74k actual miles
Looks cool, quadravan conversion from what I heard weren't always the cleanest installs, but I still wouldn't be afraid of owning one
