Description:

1986 Mazda B2000 LX in what I would consider very good condition. I am the 3rd owner, this vehicle spent most of it's life in Sacramento, CA and has been in Idaho the last 4 years since I purchased it at about 86, 000 miles.
Electrically I can say this vehicle is top notch, I relocated for work last year and kept it parked in my vacation house for over a year. Of course I forgot to disconnect the battery when I parked it, but one year later the car started right up after a couple of cranks and the car clock was off by 5 minutes. After pulling out I did spot a small oil spot (about 4 diameter), probably a main seal bearing leak.
Mechanically this car drives great, 3 items I notice when driving it. First at low idle the heat shield appears to vibrate against something so you get a bit of a rattle. Second, I think there is some air in the clutch hydraulics as it seems to relax a little if you are sitting at a light for a long time with the clutch engaged. The other issue is that the AC needs to be charged.
Body issues with the car are pretty much pictured, a few chips or scratches on the paint, windshield has 2 chips (I think all glass is original), passenger side vent has broken louvers, passenger side speaker grill missing some teeth, a dash speaker is shorting out or blown, original floor mats show some heel wear on the drivers side. Obviously the center console is missing. Not pictured is the drivers seat, I believe the back portion is tear free, but the lower part had tears in the upholstery (that is why I put seat covers on), passenger seat is tear free. Also the back cushion pad in the x-tra cab is pulling loose (it looks like the glue just gave up after 30 years).
The body is perfectly straight, except in front of the passenger rear wheel you can see a slight dent from scraping against something (pictured).
I guess I should mention some good things. The tires are relatively new (have about 1000-2000 miles on them) and the brake inspection at the time passed with flying colors (the mechanics at Les Schwab commented on how nice the truck was for it's age). The truck drives great and gets about 30mpg on the highway.
Included with the truck will be a Weber carburetor, before I start hacking and modifying this truck up to fit my needs I figured I will advertise it. I know some people are big fans of this year of mini-truck and it would make an easy project being so clean and straight. Nada retail has this at $3800 average and $5600 high, the Nada guide doesn't take in mileage, but I would consider this a low mileage vehicle given the age.
If you have any questions, I will do my best to answer.
