The car was delivered from the factory in black and was repainted in gray metallic under previous ownership. Details include a replacement black convertible soft top and boot cover, chrome bumpers and a driver-side mirror, glass headlight covers, hood vents, and a center dual exhaust outlet. The seller states the floor pans and rocker panels have been replaced due to rust.
Chrome knock-off 15″ wire wheels are mounted with 205/70 Pirelli P4000 tires. The car rides on four-wheel independent suspension with torsion bars up front and coil springs at the rear. The seller states that the front brakes have been upgraded. The front and rear suspension bushings were reportedly replaced along with the ball joints and tie rod ends.
The seating surfaces are trimmed in black leather joined by a matching dashboard, door panels, and center console. Amenities include a Blaupunkt AM/SW/FM radio, lap belts, and a sliding rearview mirror. The radio does not work and a spare will accompany the car. Additional items included in the sale consist of a car cover, trunk panels, seat covers, and door panels.
The wood-rimmed steering wheel frames a 160-mph speedometer, a tachometer with a 5k-rpm redline, and a clock. The five-digit mechanical odometer shows 48k miles, approximately 13k of which have been added by the seller.
The 4.2L twin-cam inline-six was rebuilt by North Coast Exotics in Cleveland, Ohio in 2002 and is equipped with triple SU side-draft carburetors. The seller states the wiring harness has been replaced, and an aftermarket exhaust header has been installed along with electronic ignition. A spin-off oil filter conversion has been completed.

Power is sent to the rear wheels via a four-speed manual gearbox.
