Hmmm.... '96 so it's going to rust even quicker than the earlier ones. Take a magnet to feel for filler. Ask if rust has been repaired or panels have been replaced. If he says there was no rust, then he's lying or doesn't know which are both just as bad as each other.
Ad lists no parts, only says that stuff has been done.
Too much chrome, those chrome seam covers and overriders are tacky as hell and will look shit after one winter. Those wheels will bubble and go spidery after one winter. Get rid of the clear rear lights, they always let water in and mist up, not to mention the OG lights look better.
I hope you have small feet as centre consoles seriously reduce space in the footwell and he's got a speaker in there too!

This makes it look like a promising example, in terms of quality of restoration.
