See response #13 and #18 where he said he was dipping into his reserve pile and had 4 cats to take in.

dermestid if you can find one i still would not turn it down! the van itself weighs just few pounds short of 4,000#
also has 2 cats under it you can cut off. mine i paid $300 for it. at the yard i got $390 for it. not counting the cats. then the cats i got an extra $100 for.
if i were to do it again i would buy another ford windstar.

lol sledge.
think i might start a list far as what certain models that weigh the most! think its safe to say i can add the ford windstar.
that way when i'm looking for vehicles on craigslist i can spot them.

Thanks I will have to keep that in mind! Around me though there aren't to many Windstars for scrap, a lot more of the the GM mini vans lately (venture, sihouette, montana style), so I have picked up a few of those and they're right up there as well, around 3700-3900LBS.
