Here's what I am thinking, the seats suck, so I will get seat covers. Either one of these:
To fix up the outside a little, I will get one of these decals in red. I like the third one the best:
Or I will get this in either orange or yellow if I get the dragon seat covers:
It should look something like this:
Then, I am thinking about getting some interior dye to fix up the doghouse and dash. The problem with that is, I am having a hard time getting dye that is the same color as the interior already. I don't want to have to redo every little plastic piece.
I can get the covers, decals, and dye for $75. That means I would have to ask for $975. I don't think $1,000 is unreasonable for the van. On eBay, I could probably get that. I also found a bench seat that folds into a bed. The guy selling it is right down the road. A couple bands wanted a bench seat so the whole band could ride in the van along with their equipment. The red seat covers comes with a bench seat cover, so they will all match. Even if I sell the van without the bench seat, I could use it in my apartment when I move out this week. I don't have any furniture yet and the bench seat would be cool.
What do you think I should do? Fix it up and hopefully it will be easier to sell, or sell it like it is cheaper? My dad says I should just sell it, but I think for $75, it would look more like an 80s vanner van and then more people would be interested in it on eBay. I also thought about getting the deals and covers and listing it on eBay the way it is and say "if bidding goes over $1,000, I will through in free seat covers and decals." I think offering the dye is kinda stupid. "Buy my van and get free interior dye to make the inside less sucky."
