The vehicle was placed on a rotisserie and the driver-side rocker panel, middle section and lower-outer skin of the cargo floor, four outriggers, and jack pockets were replaced prior to receiving a repaint in the factory Sealing Wax Red and Beige Gray, after which a clearcoat was applied.
Refurbishment work included installing Wolfsburg West front and rear bumpers, deluxe bumper trim and hardware, fluted German-style headlamps, turn signals, windshield wiper arms, aftermarket safari windshields with polished trim, an antenna, weatherstripping, and window seals.
Additional work consisted of installing beltline trim, a chrome engine lid keyhole, rear bumper splash guard inserts and hardware, and a wiring harness and bulbs.
A replacement two-spoke steering wheel with a Wolfsburg-crest horn button frames a newer 80-mph VDO speedometer with a five-digit odometer that shows 47k miles.
Total mileage is unknown.
