Additional features include a Toyota Genuine CB radio with a still-packaged antenna, a rear sliding window, and the original spare tire mounted underneath.

The comprehensive work included a suspension and steering overhaul with new Bilstein 4600 shocks, rebuilt front hubs, Moog tie rods, energy suspension bushings, and an Old Man Emu steering damper. The engine received new gaskets for the timing cover, oil pan, spark plugs, spark plug wires, distributor cap, rotor, water pump, starter, thermostat, and valve cover gasket. The clutch system was refreshed with a new master and slave cylinder. The brake system was updated with new drums, wheel cylinders, and shoes, and the aftermarket Weber 32/34 carburetor was rebuilt for smooth performance.
