Its got 218K. Auto trans. Its that green/blue color with a tan interior and third seat.

Drivers seat is rough but most of the rest of the interior is clean. Needs blower motor and probably heater control valve.

Paint is mostly really good. There is slight damage to the drivers side quarter that is causing some funky turn signal alignment, but nothing awful. I think it will respond fantastically to a clay bar and some wax.

Very tiny amounts of rust in the lower front of the rear wheel arches. No big deal, easy POR-15 fix.

Tires are good, brakes are good.

Does not run well. Starts hard, engine shakes, etc. I'm going after vaccum leaks and intake manifold gasket first, but am prepared to pull the head if need be. Also flame trap, ICV, etc are getting a good cleaning.

Lots of new parts in the last year. Windshield, TAB, entire cooling system, etc.

Not sure what I want to do with it yet. Definitely a project for a few months, might keep, might sell, might pass on to my parents for a utility vehicle.

What did I pay?
