Nice looking G. If it has a/c as it says it's not factory fitted as the control knob is missing.
Do all swbs have the rear arm rest?

Mine has. But in 1992 they included the rear seat folded in 1/3 or 2/3 and I don´t know if they removed the rear arm rest then.

Cheers

I was wondering about that. I've got an armrest too, but would love the 60/40 seats. I have only seen them once on a SWB and anything I have read, including on the new models does not mention that as an option...

Well it was never listed as an option because it was never an option. It either did not exist or became standard at some point.

After a bit of investigation, I have been able to establish the following:

* Until 1993, the SWB had the arm rest but you could only fold the rear seat as a whole. The LWB had no arm rest but could be folded in 1/3 or 2/3s.

*From 1994, neither the SWB nor the LWB have an arm rest. The SWB can be folded 50/50 and the LWB 1/3 or 2/3s.

Cheers
