Good battery & good charging system. New water pump and fuel pump. Starts easy and runs strong. TRANSMISSION: Performs beautifully. Engages gears quickly and shifts through all forward gears and reverse with good downshift and torque converter performance. Clean fluid with no burn odors. EXTERIOR: Body: Body is completely straight with no dents. Absolutely no body work ever. The only complaint is a tiny ding low on the passenger front door. Way above average. Paint: Paint is exceptionally nice and all original. The only complaint is some bug staining low on front bumper and on drivers side mirror, and very minor fade on plastic panels glued to rear doors. Way above average also. Wood: Upper wood trim was removed, painted tan and reinstalled so it wont peel like most do at this age. The side panel fake wood is in excellent shape - all shiny and even the seams around the rear license plate area have zero lifting. Other: Lower stainless bright trim is very nice with two small notable dings on right rear quarterpanel and right front door. Rubber side trim is all there. Windshield and all other glass are good with no chips, cracks or scratches. Undercarriage is absolutely beautiful - never undercoated and still spotless as seen in pics. Underhood sheet metal/wheelhouses are spotless. Tailgate sill and door jambs have zero rust as seen in pics. Aluminum wheels are in great shape with no fading or clearcoat peeling. INTERIOR: Interior of the car is in exceptionally nice shape as expected of low miles. The ONLY complaints are a small cut in the vinyl on the back of the drivers seat, and some discoloration on the hump on the rear seat carpet. Dash has no cracks. Leather seating areas are in great shape, leather is still soft. Carpet in seating area is very nice, sports all 4 original floormats in good shape, and cargo deck carpet in good shape with a couple minor stains. Small scuff on tailgate trim. Headliner is nice - not sagging anywhere. Steering wheel is in nice shape and dye is mostly intact. Most of the ON-OFF-RES lettering still visible on cruise stalk as a testament to low miles. No smoke or pet odors. Very nice interior overall. ELECTRICAL STUFF: All inspection items work (lights, horn, wipers, etc.) The power antenna does not work (can lift manually) but all other power options work reliably, including power windows, power locks, dual power seats, hot heat and cold A/C, tilt, cruise, am/fm stereo cassette, keyless entry, rear window release, rear wiper, twilight sentinel, intermittent wipers, and rear defroster. DRIVEABILITY: Drives out beautifully as youd expect of low miles. Steering is tight, alignment is dead on, suspension is tight. Brakes work well with about 70% lining remaining. Tires have about 50% tread remaining on a matched set of good quality whitewall radials (including the full size aluminum wheel spare tire.) Solid, quiet original stainless steel exhaust with no leaks. Check engine light is not lit (except at start up as it should.) All readiness monitors working properly if your state uses emissions test plugged into the engine computer. No complaints - drive anywhere.
