BODY OVERVIEW: This isnt your average FJ Cruiser"this one sheds its roof for an open-air experience, thanks to a rare convertible conversion from Newport Convertible Engineering. The body retains its bold, unmistakable FJ styling, but with added personality. As shown in the photos, there are some minor nicks and dings as are to be expected for a vehicle of this vintage. Buyers should note that this was originally a Michigan vehicle, and the undercarriage shows it.

PAINT CONDITION OVERVIEW: The Black Cherry Pearl finish brings depth and richness to the exterior, turning heads in a sea of beige SUVs.

There is a bubble above the rear passenger tire that deserves attention, but otherwise the paint holds a good shine and presents well save for normal chips and surface scratches. There are some touchups and rock chips present on the front, as shown in the photos. INTERIOR CONDITION OVERVIEW: Inside, the black and gray leather seats offer a clean, rugged look with a touch of comfort. The overall condition is very good, with normal wear common to a utility vehicle. The stereo has been upgraded to a modern Sony unit with Alpine speakers.
