Know anybody that might want this well-loved car?? Believe it or not, this car will be hot property in the missionary community here. :) We won't have any trouble selling it. We're leaving in May so it's time to start thinking about selling, giving away, and throwing away stuff. Having this van the last 4 years has been such a gift. It has worked well although the transmission did have to be changed about 2 years ago. But hey, that's not too bad. This van has hauled people, furniture, luggage, pets, and when it was on our container that shipped over here, the van was packed full of clothes.
It does still have the Dixie Alabama plates on it, though. And we have gotten a lot of funny looks and stares! Especially crossing country borders.
"Blue Bessie" has been a blessing!
