Condition 

6

The vehicle is described as having wear visible on the roof, lettering that can be removed with paint thinner, and a hole in the bed floor. The temperature gauge is also noted as not reading accurately. Although the surf shop reupholstered the seat and door panels, these issues point to moderate wear and the need for some reconditioning.
