The seller reports that the 15″ Fuchs “deep six” wheels were refurbished by Weidman Wheels of Oroville, California, including widening the rears to 7″ in width. Pirelli Cinturato P7 tires measure 205/50 up front and 225/50 out back, and braking is handled by discs all around. An external oil cooler is mounted in the passenger-side front fender well, and the car retains blue, six-digit California license plates front and rear.
Later-model sport seats have been added and were re-trimmed in black along with the dash to match the rest of the upholstery. Materials were reportedly sourced from Classic 9 of Dearborn Heights, Michigan. Additional interior appointments include replacement gray square-weave carpets, hand-crank windows, CocoMats floor mats, a H3R HalGuard Halotron fire extinguisher, three-point front seatbelts, and a Blaupunkt push-button radio.
A 380mm-diameter steering wheel frames VDO instrumentation, including a central tachometer and 150-mph speedometer. The five-digit odometer has rolled over and currently shows 65k miles, approximately 40k of which have been added by the seller.
The rebuild of the 2.4L flat-six was completed in 2009 by Mobile Works West of Grass Valley, California. Work included the following:
An oil change was carried out in November 2022, and a battery shut-off switch is located in the front trunk.
Power is sent to the rear wheels through a five-speed Type 915 manual transaxle.
