EXTERIOR

The original exterior Bronze Grey paint shows well with various abrasions and cosmetic impressions. There is little to no rust on the body or chassis. It sits on 33 inch BF Goodrich AT tires that show good tread.

It looks like this vehicle has been used on off road trails but not abused – scratches but no dents.

The leaf springs, differentials and brush guard have minor surface oxidation.

CONCLUSIONS

Excellent example of a luxury SUV from a simpler era.

Great driver.
