This is a sexy sports car. Very sleek Italian body design. This one
has upgrades to the suspension, significant performance
improvements to the motor and some nice visual enhancements too. It
is very well restored, a pile of receipts are included.
EXTERIOR: This body is very clean and straight. I don't find any
damage or rust. Everything fits nicely. The bright red paint is
very shiny and attractive. It does he have some texture that a good
wet sand and buff would take care of. It looks like almost all of
the chrome and trim was replaced. It has optional bumper guards.
Windshield, weather strips and silplates were replaced. New Empi
GT8 rims and Virdistein tires were installed August of 2017.
INTERIOR: It's beautiful inside too. Excellent condition floor to
ceiling including the bits and pieces. The dash area is excellent.
New wood grain applique, upgraded set of VDO gauges. The clock was
replaced with a tachometer and an oil pressure gauge was added. I
really like the new custom Nardi wheel. On the floor it has new
carpet and Coco mats. Upgraded Gene Berg 12 inch shifter. The
e-brake handle, boot, heater levers look like new too. The
upholstery, door panels and headliner were replaced. It has
retractable 3 point seatbelts in front. The rear seat folds flat
for cargo space.
ENGINE COMPARTMENT: The engine compartment is completely restored
and detailed. Every component is rebuilt or new. The motor has
significant performance upgrades. Originally 1600 cc, now it's 1914
cc. The block was cracked so it has a new magnesium block.
Completely rebuilt, bored and balanced. New bearings, cam, lifters,
chromoly push rods, rocker shafts high volume oil pump etc.
Upgraded with Vintage Speed 38 mm headers. Upgraded ignition system
with 8mm wires, Flame Thrower coil, Igniter lll distributor. New
dual Weber 40 mm carbs. New battery, cables and bracket. New waffle
pattern insulation, new weatherstrip.
TRUNK COMPARTMENT: It looks like brand new. It has a new correct
liner kit. The spare rim and tire have never been used. New set of
horns.
UNDERSIDE: Upgraded suspension. Up front it has all new steering
and suspension upgraded with coil over adjustable shocks. In back
it has KYB gas shocks, custom sway bar, Stiffy 6 point support bar
system. I see several parts that look new like the axle shafts and
boots. New pressure plate. Custom stainless Empi euro style
muffler. Very solid overall, there's one patch in the floor
pan.
This is one of the best I've seen. Colors are great, the upgrades
are awesome. The little things are real nice too.
I, Jay Grams, take pride in personally writing the descriptions for
virtually every car for about the last 30 years now. A significant
amount of effort goes into fact checking. What I am offering is my
professional impression of the vehicle.
Our salesmen are happy to assist with descriptions and making sure
your questions are answered. One great suggestion is letting us do
a walk around video that explains the car's condition in
detail.
