Description
9-liter inline-six, installation of a Toyota five-speed manual transmission and a brake servo unit, and additional modifications such as a lightweight flywheel, a Monza exhaust system, an electronic ignition module, aftermarket rear leaf springs, and a sway bar. More recent service included an oil change as well as replacement of the battery and spark plugs in summer 2020. Chrome bumpers with overriders are retained and LED lighting has been added. A black soft top and side curtains are included in the sale, as is the tonneau cover pictured above. Chrome 15â?³ knock-off wire wheels wear 185/70 Vredestein tires with 2012 date codes, and a covered chrome spare wheel is mounted in the trunk. The suspension has reportedly been modified with a sway bar and tempered steel rear leaf springs, while brake work in 2011 included installation of a servo unit. The cockpit seats four and is trimmed in red leather with matching carpets and polished aluminum accents. A battery cut-off switch has been installed in the trunk. A wood-rimmed steering wheel frames Smiths instrumentation including a 200-km/h speedometer, a tachometer, and gauges for coolant temperature, oil pressure, and fuel level. The rolled five-digit odometer shows 2k kilometers (~1,200 miles).
