The car is absolutely original with the following exceptions. There have been no accidents, Damage or Flaws other than that listed below.
Paint: There were a few very small paint chips that Stalltek expertly repaired on the hood and rear flares. As I recall, these occurred during the European trip during the leg through Scotland.
Tires: I am not sure what brand the original tires were (probably Pirellis, the COA does not specify) but according to the date codes on the current tires….they appear to have been replaced a few months after the European trip with BF Goodrich T/A’s. He probably replaced them after the wear from the trip (he was that way). The car now wears brand new set of Toyo Proxes R888s (roughly 3 years old at the time of this writing). The “original” set of tires is included with the sale should the new owner prefer a period set of tires on the car.
Mods: There has been a small but significant (and easily reversible) modification made to the fuse system. Basically, a modern fuse hack has been applied to the fuses that run the fuel pumps. This has made startups considerably 100% reliable in the humid Iowa weather.
Starting Module: For the sake of reliability, the original CDI ignition module was rebuilt to factory specs.
