Originally finished in Tobacco Brown, the car was repainted in its current shade of green prior to the seller’s acquisition. It is equipped with a beige soft top and matching top boot as well as bright bumpers and trim, a left-side mirror, stacked sealed-beam headlamps, and twin polished exhaust outlets.
Steel 14″ wheels wear covers with body-color centers and are mounted with 195/75 Michelin Rainforce MX4 tires. Stopping power is provided by four-wheel disc brakes. The seller notes that work in preparation for the sale included servicing the power steering along with replacing the rear suspension bushings as well as the rear brake calipers and pads.
The seating surfaces are trimmed in beige leather, and the front seat inserts are said to have been replaced under current ownership. Wood trim accents the dashboard and A-pillars, and amenities include power windows, a locking glove compartment, an analog clock, map pockets, and a Blaupunkt AM/FM cassette radio. The seller notes the air conditioning system was converted for use of R-134A refrigerant, however it does not work. The material is peeling on the center console, and tears are present in the front passenger floor mat and rear carpet.
A two-spoke steering wheel with a metal horn ring frames VDO instrumentation including a 160-mph speedometer, a tachometer, and auxiliary gauges. The five-digit odometer shows just over 12k miles and is noted to have rolled over. Total mileage is unknown.
The 3.5-liter M116 V8 was factory rated at 197 horsepower and features single overhead camshafts as well as Bosch fuel injection. Service performed in preparation for the sale reportedly includes adjusting the timing and changing the oil as well as replacing the fuel pump, injector clips, and the distributor vacuum advance unit. The seller notes that the ignition works intermittently.
Power is sent to the rear wheels through a four-speed automatic transmission. Fluids for the differential and transmission are said to have been replaced in preparation for the sale. Corrosion is noted under the radiator support and on the underside near the right frame rail.
