Steel 14″ wheels wear chrome covers with body-color accents and are mounted with 195/75Continental Touring LX narrow-whitewall tires. Braking is handled by power-assisted discs at each corner. The right-rear caliper was replaced in May 2022, while the power steering box was replaced in April 2023.
The interior houses bucket seats that have been re-trimmed in black upholstery and are accompanied by color-coordinated door panels. Sound deadening material lines the footwells and is topped with gray carpeting, while brushed aluminum trim adorns the black dashboard. Additional appointments include a Frigiking air conditioning system, a clock, lap belts, map pockets, and a Becker Europa push-button radio linked to rear-mounted speakers. The wood trim located atop the dash is warped.
The two-spoke steering wheel wears a chrome horn ring and fronts a white-painted dashboard that houses a 140-mph speedometer, a tachometer, and vertically oriented auxiliary gauges for fuel level, oil pressure, and coolant temperature. The five-digit odometer shows 72k miles.
The 2.8-liter M130 inline-six is equipped with Bosch mechanical fuel injection and drives the rear wheels through a four-speed automatic transmission. An electronic ignition conversion was completed in October 2021.
