EMPI's version of the classic Weber 48 ida carbs
Nice stance...not too low...a good "grown up" stance.
1 pc door glass and the smooth Cal Look rubbers.
No trim on the running boards as well...looks nice!
The Euro style taillight lenses with the amber tops are another nice touch.
Back in the day when these were hard to get in the US, they were definitely on the cool list!
Nice finish to the paint and very minimal stone chips.
Stainless body trim looks great.
Handles and seals are all very clean and fresh
Looks nice and smooth down the sides.
Excellent tires on all four corners
Nice Continental rubber up front.
Early turn signal lights are another subtle touch that add greatly to the look.
Big monster tach with shift light.
Polished dash knobs.
LeCarra steering wheel is nice
Empi trigger shifter with ivory knob.
Scat Pro-Car seats.
Modern audio in the dash, some great show event plaques from the Bug Ins
Polished door sill trims.
Even a couple of DKP club plaques!
Scat door panels to match the seats
Full set of VDO gauges in the dash in black textured panels.
I like the blacked out speedometer trim too to tie it all in together.
The cruiser pedal is very cool.
Headliner and carpet are all like new.
No rear seat...just a flat carpeted panel.
Easy to install a seat if you ever wanted to...nothing was modified.
Deep sump on the engine
Auxillary oil filter.
Adjustable front beam
Very solid floorpans and body on this car.
The square plates seen mid way back are for the roll bar mounts.
Carpet is in nice shape.
Under front hood is clean
I do see that the paint on the bottom of the hood and the hood hinges is not matching.
Sharp car...great look and it runs and drives very well
In closing this one has a lot going for it for a very reasonable price.
Good solid car, very clean and well done, and with the big performance engine out back and
all the other upgrades, it would be a hard car to replicate for the asking price.
This is a bargain!!
