The car was repainted in its current shade of white following rust repairs in 2014, while the black soft top and red top boot were replaced in 2016. Equipment includes a chrome windshield surround, grille, and bumpers with overriders.
Steel 13″ wheels wear chrome rings along with body-color hubcaps and are mounted with 175/70 Michelin Defender tires. A matching spare and jack are housed in the trunk. The car is equipped with a double-wishbone front suspension, rear swing axles with coil springs, and power-assisted drum brakes. The brake master cylinder was replaced in 2013, the front brakes were disassembled and cleaned, the wheel cylinders were replaced, and the parking brake was repaired in 2020.
Low-back bucket seats were reupholstered in 2016 with red leather and are complemented by a color-matching dashpad, door panels, and square-weave carpeting. Equipment includes a heater, map light, ashtray, and a dash-mounted rearview mirror. The front floor pans were replaced in 2013.
The two-spoke steering wheel features a chrome horn ring. VDO instrumentation was overhauled during the refurbishment and includes a 140-mph speedometer, a 7k-rpm tachometer, and gauges for oil pressure, water temperature, and fuel level. The five-digit odometer shows 66k miles, a handful of which were added under current ownership. True mileage is unknown.
The 1.9-liter M121 inline-four was refreshed under current ownership, and work included replacing the pistons, valves, engine mounts, and radiator hoses in addition to the timing chain, water pump, oil tank, and fuel tank, pump, and sender. The carburetors were rebuilt in 2019, and the front crankshaft seal was replaced in 2020.
