Send me the VIN and I can try to look up the colors and such. There are 5 interior colors that I know of: bahama beige, grey, dark tundra, alpaca, and black.

Also, SD trim doesn't come standard with sunroofs, but I'm pretty sure just about anything was an option whether from the factory or in some cases dealer added.

I'm shocked to see the absence of bodily fluid stains in that driver seat after a roll-over.

You're going to have to book an appointment at a body shop with a rack sophisticated enough to measure the frame's trueness. Be prepared because rack time is not cheap.

I'm sure you know this, No one can tell if a frame is bent simply by looking at pictures.

I've seen D2s with light stone interiors. More on the ivory side of alpaca

Initially it looks a 'bitsa' (bits of this and that) but looking at the optional extras available back then both LR and main dealer (I still have the original sales brochure with optional extras for mine) it may have been a standard truck with a combination of options added. Many LR 'options' can be retro fitted by main dealers who have the correct facilities. I think you have a standard truck with some personalised options the original owner wanted fitting at that time rather than a quirky or unusual truck.

It's a D2, the frame is bent.

Absolutely, I just didn't know the rough guess, like:

or if they usually pull through alright. Anyway, looks to be interesting! jafir looked up the VIN for me, and it's saying Bahama Beige interior.

I agree, it does look that way. Thanks for everyone's help, I learned a lot about interior/exterior options through this.

What's the brand on that intake? I looked and looked for one and never could find it. I ended up making my own and I'm about to need another one for one I'm rebuilding.

That washer bottle is really weird, never seen one of those. Does it have a steel front bumper?
