Very well appointed little number. He says it has factory A/C(!). Also, he has another one, an 80s model.

has to be an 81+, Jimny/Samurai only had that flimsy roll bar looking piece in the second gen. And those graphics call out 85+ to me. Would drive the donkey piss out of that on the trails though

God I love these things. I lobbied hard for one as my first car, but my parents were convinced I'd roll it over on day 1. It's hard to say they were wrong, though.

I probably remembered him wrong (maybe he said 87?). Or, he may have been thinking of his other one. Either way, though.

Older gent, so while trail-riding may occur, I don't know outright hooning of the Consumer Reports variety is something he's likely to do.

At the risk of sounding crude you should befriend him and buy it when he gets too old.

He was in car sales for something like 2o years, I think he said. An aficionado, I talked cars with him a while over lunch.
