Lot's of questions here still to be answered if we have the time on
our hands. The guy took the van over 1000 miles to have it looked at
and that looker is making good money on it ... lot's of questions.

 From reading the thread I got the 'feeling' that 'Buyer Beware' is
the main point, should it be? If the article was right and the rust
was painted over then the van sold as "rust free" is that the buyers
problem? Do we always say "buyer beware" because it is expected to be
cheated? Is being cheated the norm in this community?

I have other problems to deal with today... Have a good new year volks.
