Yep, 1994. The steel ones were the fully rigid, which you have, or the FS (Front Suspension). Both came with LX. The M2 FS came with XT but I think all of the others were LX equipped. I guess Spesh were concerned about price points that year. The one you have looks great.
Story goes that it was an old guy who bought it mid nineties and barely used it. It was inherited to his daughter on his passing (late 90s) where it’s sat un-used until now when it was given to a guy to sell local to me.
