It is absolutely complete with full side curtains, op boot, nd tonneau cover; all of which were made at the same time as the top. The interior is full leather, iamond tufted as original.The authentic grey linoleum on the floorboards and running boards is still nice, s it was covered with protective carpets for many of the 'show' years, lthough no longer perfect.

The headlight rims are shown missing in one of the photos as they were out for replating, ut they are now back on the car as shown in other photos. It has dual spare tires on the rear.
