The truck is finished in light blue with silver bumpers and a white removable white hardtop. Additional exterior details include a vented hood, dual side mirrors, ambulance-style rear doors, a rear step, and a rear-mounted spare tire. The rear indicator lights are inoperative, and additional flaws include corrosion on the hood latches and paint blemishes on various body panels.
Black 15″ steel wheels with bright hubcaps wear 31×10.5″ Avante Boss Terrain white-letter tires. The truck is equipped with manually locking front hubs, Old Man Emu suspension components, and four-wheel disc brakes with slotted rotors. Work since 2022 reportedly consisted of replacing the primary and secondary brake cylinders. The truck was also in for recent service and reset the points on the distributor.
The front bucket seats and inward-facing rear jump seats are said to have been retrimmed in gray marine-grade vinyl under previous ownership. Equipment includes a fold-down windshield, wing windows, and front shoulder belts, The shifter boot is torn, and the aftermarket speaker system does not work.
The three-spoke steering wheel frames a 160-km/h speedometer as well as gauges for oil pressure, coolant temperature, amperage, and fuel level. The five-digit odometer shows 49k kilometers (~31k miles), approximately 100 of which have been added under current ownership. Total mileage is unknown.
The 4.2-liter 2F inline-six is equipped with a single carburetor, and the seller states that the radiator was replaced in 2022. Power is routed to the rear or all four wheels through a four-speed manual transmission and a dual-range transfer case.
