Description of 1988 Suzuki Samurai JA

Very stock and original 1988 Suzuki Samurai JA. Don't know history on this vehicle. Bought it in Tucson AZ and drove it home to LA. I've owned for almost 2 years and put a couple thousand miles on it commuting across LA. Was my daily driver, now is my weekend around town car. Moving, need to get rid of the extra car.
Good:
Body straight
No critical rust
Miata seats - no tears
Rear seat present
Soft top great condition - no tears
Bikini top included - no tears
Good tread remaining on tires
Always starts
Good carpet kit
Speakers work
No oil leaks
West coast vehicle (AZ & CA)
New catalytic converter & O2 sensor (2017)
4wd works
Paint good (clear coat worn and oxidization on drivers side but decent)
Bad:
Probably won't smog in CA without carb/engine tune
Old tires (5 yr)
Radio doesn't work
Heater disconnected
Coolant leak
Small hole in muffler
Normal wear and tear (remember, 30 yr old mostly stock vehicle)
This sale is "as-is" for a 30 yr old vehicle. Buyer understands that engine/carb may need attention to pass smog if your state requires that. Hole in muffler is small, will be easy and cheap to replace. I just discovered the coolant leak the other day when I added fluid so I haven't looked into that yet. It is likely just a water pump replacement. I am not sure how long it has had a leak but car has never overheated. I am not a mechanic and don't have full history but will answer questions the best I can.
$500 NON-REFUNDABLE deposit required 24 hrs after auction end because I don't have time for non-serious buyers. Need it gone. Buyer responsible to pay the rest in-cash upon pickup. Will add sellers fee (3%) to purchase price if buyer is non-local and needs to do PayPal. Buyer responsible for paying and arranging shipping but I will help to facilitate that as best as I can.
Sammy needs to be out of my garage by June 3 so keep that in mind when planning pickup/delivery.
