Interior & Exterior

Interior Year
2012
Interior Notes
The interior was partially refurbished in 2012. The seats were redone along with the carpet. The fabric is in good condition with normal wear. The headliner has some minor broken plastic around some of the vents.
Exterior Notes
The paint is in good to fair condition. The base color white is still in good condition. The painted stripes on the outer portion of the wings are starting to flake off in places. The white on the horizontal stabilizer is starting to peel off in areas as well. The leading edges have some minor chips in the paint.
