Interior & Exterior

Interior Rating: 7/10

Interior Year: 2018

Paint Year: 2018

Interior Notes: I give the interior a 7. The front seats are showing wear. The carpet and side panels are in good shape. The intercom for the rear seats are inside the ashtrays.

Exterior Notes: I'm guessing on the paint date. Its Grand Dad Green almost Seahawk colors. The clear coat has been peeling off for the last few years. It is what it is.
