 Recent tires(205/70R14 SBRs by LeMans), brakes and clutch

 I have seen it and body and paint is quite clean with some seam
 rust(hard or expensive to fix?) and some rust on horizontal panel behind
 front bumper. No visible drips from heads, case or tranny. Odometer says
 93,000 miles.

 Owner will accept "best offer" but is out of town for weekend holiday.

 Assuming it drives okay, passes a pre-purchase inspection and doesn't
 drip after driving, what would be a "good" price to offer? How much to
 "steal" it and how much is "too much?"

 TIA

 If the van checks out very well, engine also, and is a weekender with rear
facing seats, table, I would offer around 5K and see how it goes. Going price
for that van depending where you live, is around  7k to 10k, add 5k more if it
has a pop top.
