Subject:86 Syncro for sale in WA

Eric:

Okay, point taken and everyone has my apologies for my being unclear.  To all

those interested, I am asking $600 for the 86 Syncro with the blown engine.
I am trying to get pictures today so they will be available later.  Forget
about the "best offer" approach I tried earlier.  It was a poor approach to
selling the van but in my defense I have never tried to sell a vehicle with a
blown
engine before so I didn't know what to ask.  I can give more details to
anyone that asks and I will do my best.

Cheers.
John
86 Syncro
Tacoma, WA
