The vehicle is described as having been refurbished by a previous owner, with the finish in Belgian military livery. Surface corrosion is noted on chassis members. The seating has been re-covered, and some parts have been substituted. The odometer shows just under 19k kilometers, with 1,500 added during the seller’s ownership. The horn is not currently operative. Overall, the car seems to be in good working order and has been maintained, but it exhibits some wear and modifications that suggest it is not in excellent or near-perfect condition.
