compartment panels, a smooth firewall, a metal-fabricated center
console housing ride height and timing controls, and custom
stainless interior trim. In the trunk under removable floor panels
are two batteries, one for the engine and one for the stereo. The
fuel fill is also in the trunk for a custom built aluminum fuel
cell. The side molding trim is hand made. The interior is a
two-seater with custom bucket seats, vintage AC controls, classic
instruments gauges, stereo system, and an immaculate headliner.
Comes with a battery maintainer and cushioned tie down axle straps.
A three-level integrated adjustable air ride height controller is
located under a trap door in the center console. The vehicle has
been driven with 18,886 miles on the odometer, confirming its

is deep and throaty yet refined. An award-winning, high-quality,
