Observer
Well, I don't actually think it's ugly. But it certainly isn't pretty!
This van has been used for its intended purpose, with 20 years of offroading adventures in the USA and Mexico. The paint clearcoat is scuffed with brushmarks. The body has some dents and a few significant cracks. Underneath, there is surface rust from beach camping, but no rust-through. Interior is worn and scratched, but serviceable. Most everything still works great.
