Backing this motor is a upgraded Bus ribbed four-speed manual transmission and a Super Differential. Driver conveniences include front disc brakes. Inside, a full custom interior replaces the original. Up front are a pair of sumptuous-looking bucket seats with a companion rear bench, all done in two-tone gray cloth. Gray carpet covers the floorpan and the inner door panels are two-tone gray while another shade of gray covers the burgundy metal instrument panel, above and below the Classic VDO gauges. In addition, there?s a SunPro tachometer tucked away for the driver?s eyes only and an exquisite Petri Banjo steering wheel with the most unique hub ? the 12 Zodiac signs ring the hub?s perimeter. A Blaupunkt three-band radio completes the interior. Exterior changes in 1961 included wider and finned front grilles, taller and more rounded rear taillights and headlights relocated to a higher position ? with previous models and their lower headlight placement called lowlights. The Italian designer Sergio Sartorelli, designer of Type 34, oversaw the various re-stylings of Type 14. In 1970, larger taillights integrated the reversing lights and larger wrap-around turn signals. Still larger and wider taillights increased side visibility.
