SOLD!
Lowered to 13,500, or best offer. This has been a rolling restoration since 2016. I have put about 65k miles on it during that time. It's rust-free with a white exterior with grey fabric interior. No sunroof. Seems like there was a 2" lift from some time in the past. Shown here on 32"s (275/75/16). Center diff lock only.
I'm a mechanical engineer and a former NASA engineering manager; I have been working on and a restoring cars and motorcycles for 30 years. This is not a concours restoration, rather, I have focused on functionality to carry my family to adventures around the country.
I have an extensive list of repairs completed since I purchased this vehicle, including, new birf joints, new shocks, new brakes, new transfer case, and new rear diff. In the engine bay, we have a new engine management computer, new radiator, new fan clutch, new distributor, new alternator, new AC compressor, new water pump, new power steering pump. I actually pulled the engine to replace all of the external seals and gaskets. I have tested the compression successfully multiple times, and vacuum tested the cooling system successfully multiple times. Regarding the interior, I replaced the cruise control computer, the dash trim, and replaced the headliner. I also added AirLift airbags in the rear, to level the load when towing or heavily laden. Detailed maintenance list available if you are interested.
This engine runs like new, pulls hard, and starts easily. As I stated before, compression is good and vacuum test on the cooling system was good. We have loved this vehicle and the whole family is heartbroken to let it go, but we have a 100-series now also, and we can't justify both.

AC is recently refurbished with a new compressor, a new low pressure line, and a new dryer. During the installation, I was interrupted after vacuuming the system. When I hooked up to the system 2 days later it was still at -30 mmHG. You'll have no AC concerns.
