The fiberglass body is finished in Laguna Blue and was repainted during the refurbishment. Features include a black convertible soft top, a tinted windshield, power-retractable antenna, driver’s side mirror, ribbed rocker trim, concealed headlights, split chrome bumperettes, fender vents, reverse lamps, and dual side-outlet exhausts. The left door has removed paint and exposed fiberglass.
The 15″ turbine wheels are fitted with three-ear knock-off hubs and are mounted with 215/70 BFGoodrich Radial T/A white-letter tires. Braking is handled by unassisted discs at all four corners. A spare tire, jack, and tools are mounted in the trunk. The seller notes that the emergency brake is nonfunctional.
The cockpit features bucket seats reupholstered in black leather joined by a color-coordinated dashboard, console, and door panels. An analog clock is mounted in the center stack, and additional features include a reverse lock-out shifter, a lockable glovebox, lap belts, and a Delco push-button AM/FM radio. The seller notes that the heater core leaks.
The three-spoke steering wheel frames a 160-mph speedometer, a tachometer, and auxiliary gauges for fuel level, amperage, oil pressure, and coolant temperature. The five-digit odometer shows 4k miles, approximately 600 of which were added by the seller. Total mileage is unknown.
The replacement 402ci V8 was reportedly installed during previous ownership and features electronic ignition, a Holley four-barrel carburetor, and an orange intake manifold and valve covers.
Power is delivered to the rear wheels through a four-speed manual transmission and a PosiTraction rear differential.
