Interior Notes
The interior is also in great shape (except the carpet, which shows some wear - but still serviceable with no stains). The seats were re-upholstered about 4 years ago, with less than 100 hours of use. Headliner and trims all very nice. Windows are nice, extra thick, tinted green.
Exterior Notes
Paint looks great. Repainted long ago, but it doesn't look it (always hangared). Lots of shine, full coverage. Has small nicks and scratches, but overall looks very nice.
