avid, my self and  couple of my friends have bought cars/vans on ebay with
great success. Usually not running or very cheap so there is nothing to loose,
always from a private seller. My freind bought a 1961 Mercedes 220S and had it
shipped from California to NJ, were are importing to Ottawa ina few days. 
You should have excellent success, you must list your phone number and
thorough specs on the vehicle, and it will sell very well. Try to be as
"honest" as possible, you want to represent the vehicle as well as you can to
avoid problems with the buyer, as ebay is not a binding contract with
vehicles! It is a little costly to advertise but the results can be
astounding, especially with unique items like that. Reserve bidding is a big
turn off for all bidders, try to set a base price that will satisfy your self
and attract bids. List it in ebaymotors, not ebay canada too.

We are thinking of listing our 1984 German Army Double Cab Transporter on
eBay motors. I am interested in hearing from people who have bought or sold
a vehicle on eBay motors. What were the good points and bad points for you?
