Options and Equipment

THE VAN:

This is a half ton with the famously great 5.7 liter Vortec motor and auto with overdrive. Has popular power and convenience features such as: power windows, locks and mirrors; tilt wheel and cruise control; CD stereo system; alloy wheels; much more

Luxury conversion

when this was new a top-level company converted, named Sherrod, converted it into the luxury van it now is. At the time of manufacture, they were one of the top couple of companies in their industry. They are one of few convertors that survived the deep recession and are still going strong. This may be the finest quality and most extensively converted full size van I've had in 7 years. It includes features such as: moderately tall, contoured roof; front and rear ventilation; large windows with vents and shades; elaborate audio/video system; lots of real wood interior trim; power seats; power rear seat folds to a bed; multiple types of custom lighting inside; molded running boards and wheel opening flares; extensive custom graphics/striping; pleated window coverings; various storage bins and cubbies; much more

MOBILITY:

* Worlds best lift: has my most favorite mobility feature that any van can have, which is the absolute best lift ever created, called a UVL, which is an acronym for 'under vehicle lift'. This lift, produced by industry giant Braun, is hard to describe in words but its benefit is obvious and clear when you see photos of it. Simply put, this lift is neatly stored (via push of a wireless remote button) under the van and is only visible when being utilized. It has great capacity, which is 800 pounds and the platform is long and wide to accommodate even large people and wheelchairs. When stowed, this lift creates no blockage of the doorway whatsoever. Therefore, there is no interior area being wasted due to the lift being parking inside the doorway. This results in having enough space to park a wheelchair along the passenger side and also utilize the single captains chair along the drivers side area. This style of lift is in less than 5 percent of all wheelchair vans, primarily due to its cost being more than $10,000

* Special floor project: this will have 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, we greatly improve 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 becomes a smooth, solid, level floor. And then commercial flooring is 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 will include 4 anchor points that are ready to be installed by the new owner, in the locations of their choice.

Dimensions, capacity and specifications:

Please feel free to email or call me with any such questions. I will gladly assist with anything you wish to know. I have discovered that due to the unique way each person evaluates, measures and expresses their needs, I can be most helpful regarding this subject if we communicate directly.

History of Ownership:

Owned by the same middle-aged couple since brand new and they bought it in Texas and lived in Texas.

Certified

This vehicle is 'CERTIFIED': There are a combined 76 mechanical and cosmetic aspects included in the Wheelchair Van Oasis "Certification" process. A foundational step of the rejuvenation process is when each vehicle receives an extensive inspection by an objective, independent third- party service and repair facility. Suggested service, repairs and improvements are then performed by various professional specialists. The result is your assurance that each of the 76 aspects meets or exceeds the condition level of good, or satisfactory.

For details regarding list of 76 cosmetic and mechanical aspects, please click here.
Each van does of course have various elements which exceed the promised level of good or satisfactory, which the "Certified" program assures. Some are brand new improvements performed during rejuvenation. And others are obvious service or repairs performed recently, prior to my ownership. As for those, I only list here those positives which are certain, based on my either having a receipt, and/or due to being obvious to the inspecting-mechanic. I refer to these as "NEW OR RECENTLY SERVICED ASPECTS".

Here are the new and recent items:

New:

tires; lube/oil/filter; injectors; spark plugs; power window motor; wipers; brake flush; exhaust; major A/C service; trans service; serpentine belts; air filter; adjust lift

Recent:
Approximate retail value/cost of above-listed items: $2,900
(extensive investment in cosmetic rejuvenation is in addition to this $2,900)

Summary of this Gem
This is such a gorgeous van and with very low miles. My favorite fact is that this has the lift that surpasses all others in several key ways.

Wow, so sharp. Looks like a much newer van
