Alright, so it's missing a bunch of little things.
Power window switches.
Center console lid.
Rear trim piece and the top that hides cargo.
Rear center headrest.
Now onto the exterior.
There's quite a few little things he's working on. The hood has oxidized paint. He started sanding it down and ended up filling rock chips. The trim piece on the front bumper is warped. It has yellowed headlights.
In the rear there's a crack on the bumper. He's planning on filling it with fiberglass and repainting as well.
For some reason it has silver mirrors.
Mechanically, everything is solid. The cruise control doesn't seem to work. I'm not sure if it would be a simple fix. Brake light switch or fuse? The A/C doesn't work. He said its the compressor clutch. He pulled codes and it indicated it was a pressure switch. He replaced the switch and it still doesn't work.
Also, the drivers door has been replaced. It was originally red. You can tell at the hinge and rock chips. The glove box hinge is broken and the antenna needs replaced.
It drives awesome though. I really like it. I'm not afraid to work on it, but the A/C and cruise control is a big deal to me.

I learned a neat trick.
Step 1: Go to Google
Step 2: Search: dealer autocheck inurl:vin
Step 3: Look for a very recent result with some sort of car dealership affiliation
Step 4: Replace the VIN at the end of the link with yours & hit enter.
For example:
