Description
Power is provided by a 1. 6-liter DOHC inline-four equipped with twin Zenith-Stromberg carburetors and mated to a five-speed manual transaxle. Additional features include front disc brakes, independent suspension with coilovers, 13â? aluminum wheels, beige interior upholstery, and a Kenwood radio. Features include a chin spoiler, chrome front and rear bumpers, dual side mirrors, a fender-mounted antenna, and Europa Special and World Champion Car Constructors badging. The passenger-side mirror was installed in 2024 after some of the photos were taken. Aluminum wheels feature green-painted recessed areas and are wrapped in 175/70 Cooper Lifeliner GLS tires up front and Solarus Starfire Classic tires at the rear. Stopping is handled by discs up front and drums at the rear, while the independent suspension incorporates coilover telescopic shock absorbers at each corner. A refresh in 2002 included rebuilds of the brake servo and calipers and replacement of the shock absorbers and springs. The fixed-back bucket seats are upholstered in beige vinyl with cloth inserts, and color-matched trim covers the center console and door panels. Additional features include color-keyed carpeting, a padded armrest, shoulder belts, a wood shift knob, power windows, and a Kenwood stereo with Bluetooth.
