Condition 

7

The car description indicates a recent restoration but mentions the need for a few finishing touches. The mileage is low, and the engine starts reliably. The car's history and rarity (only 3,727 vans and pickups produced) also contribute positively, suggesting a condition between Very Good and Excellent, pending assessment of those 'finishing touches'.
