Hi, We just started looking for a conversion van. I've always liked Dodge vans and I'd read over the Starcraft website so I started looking at them but can't find a Dodge dealer that handles them in NC. Anyone know of one. Also - looked at some 98' LA West Ford Vans. I admit they were tricked out but the dealer was asking $44,500 for the ones that we looked at. This seems LOTS higher than ANYthing I've read on this page. Is this place scamming me or is it really possible to cram enough stuff into a van to double the price? Also, do you HAVE to buy from a dealer or can you just drive to the conversion company (i.e. Starcraft, LA West) and buy from them? HELP! Thanks, PR |

PR: Starcraft should be able to give you dealers nearest you. I'd check with them. I've owned one Starcraft and was very satisfied. I now own a Coachmen with which I'm equally satisfied. You might want to take a look at them. Today, I was talking with the owner of a '98 GMC/Imperial. She likes the van alot but hates the conversion. Interior door panels falling off, rubber moldings around windows coming loose, armrests on bucket seats broken, running board broke, etc. Says she will avoid Imperial in the future. As to cost, anything is possible. I had similar problems finding a van at a "reasonable" price. Jerry |

| Am looking for a used hightop conversion but Edmunds does not provide any guidelines for conversion vans. I am assuming from the previous messages that you can use the NADA book. What is the difference between the pricing of the NADA and Edmunds? | |

| Can't find any guidelines on buying a used conversion. What is the difference between Edmunds and n.a.d.a. | |

tjella, N.A.D.A. Appraisal guides are merely another well recognized source for estimated market valuations. They publish many different guides, one of which is the "Van/Truck Conversion and Limousine Appraisal Guide". Edmunds site does not presently offer market valuations for "conversions". Check your local library or possibly your credit union to see and use the publication. Another good source for market values in your area are papers like "Auto Swapper" that contain many "For Sale by Owner" ads. Jerry |

We are looking at a Windstar MarkIII conversion van. I have the 1998 Edmund's book, but it does not list the prices for the conversion van. Does anyone know where I can obtain a price guide for MarkIII Windstar vans? Thanks... |
