Bump for a nice rig!
 
Some more pics

I've had requests for a few specific pictures, so I'll stick them here and the next post. The xfer case and disk brake are in the first pic, with some view of the underside sheet metal. Second pic is of the passenger floor board, third is of driver floor board. I just yanked up the mats and took the picture, so the leaves and dust add authenticity.

still more pics

first pic shows under the drivers seat. New paint since I took all the trail spare out and cleaned it, even has overspray on the hoses for the rear heater. Second pic is half the rear bed, rolled the liner off to the side to take the pic. Third pic is underside of bed, with right side showing the air tank.

Looks like a well thought out cruiser that's fairly priced. Good luck with the sale.
