Maintenance during current ownership is said to have included routine oil changes and replacement of fuel system and rear brake components.
The body is finished in red and features a black convertible top, a fender-mounted left-side mirror, and chrome bumpers with overriders.
15″ Minilite-style wheels wear Vredestein Sprint Classic tires, and a spare wheel and tire are housed in the trunk. The rear brake components were reportedly replaced in 2019, and a black vinyl tonneau cover is included in the sale and shown mounted on the car above.
The interior features bucket seats upholstered in black vinyl with matching carpets and door panels.
The four-spoke banjo-style steering wheel frames Jaeger instrumentation including a 120-mph speedometer, a tachometer, and gauges for fuel level, oil pressure, and coolant temperature. The five-digit odometer shows 31k miles.
The 1.5-liter inline-four was reportedly rebuilt during prior ownership and is equipped with twin SU carburetors. During current ownership a spin-on oil filter adapter was fitted and the fuel tank and fuel lines were replaced, and an oil change was performed in preparation for the sale.
Power is sent to the rear wheels through a four-speed manual transmission.
