Additional features include a 100M-style louvered hood secured with a leather tie-down strap, an adjustable reclining windshield, Lucas front fog lamps, painted knock-off wire wheels, and twin SU carburetors.

The 15” cream-colored wire wheels feature two-eared knock-off spinners and are wrapped in Nexen SB-802 tires sized 165/80. Stopping power is provided by drums at all four corners. Larger M-specification sway bars and front shocks were installed during the refurbishment. The left-hand drive cabin features twin bucket seats trimmed in blue leather with matching door panels and carpets lined with black rubber mats. Amenities include an upholstered center arm rest, a dash-mounted rear-view mirror, an ash tray, and a passenger-side grab handle. A black banjo-style steering wheel fronts a painted metal dashboard with polished accents that houses a suite of Smiths instrumentation including a 6k-rpm tachometer, a 120-mph speedometer, and auxiliary gauges for fuel level, coolant temperature, and oil pressure.
