Interior

Factory

Stewart Warner Gauges, 140MPH Speedometer and 8K tachometer Gauges. The

interior is original including the carpet.

The

convertible top has been replaced and is in great condition and goes up and

down as it should. It is a power top.

Body and

Paint:

The body on

the car is excellent. The car has no rust. I inspected the car on a lift and is

very dry front to back and has no patch panels. The paint is driver quality. The

paint is glossy but has the typical chips and touchups from a car being in a

garage and driven. The body is nice and straight and the car has great body

lines and gaps. The paint on the passenger quarter and driver fender has

touchups that aren’t great. See pics and video for further details as the

pictures act as the description as well and take priority.

Wheels

and Tires:

Original

steel wheels with Shelby hubcaps which was factory.
