Further modifications include straight-axle front suspension with a mechanical steering box, updated lighting and modern electrical components, custom interior door panels made from bread-baking tins, modern gauges fitted to the original-style dash, coilover rear suspension, disc brakes, a Lokar shifter, and an aluminium fuel tank with an isolation switch.
