The vehicle has been barn stored for several years, suggesting potential mechanical and cosmetic issues due to lack of use and environmental exposure. However, it responded well to being woken up and is now a fully functioning unit, indicating that major mechanical problems may not be present. The restoration in the early 2000s and subsequent show appearances suggest that it was in good condition at one point, but the barn storage period implies that some reconditioning may be required to bring it back to its former glory.
