It has a gear reduction starter, an alternator andcustom larger diameter exhaust.The transmission is a 4 speed with overdrive, but a Factory GT6, 4 speed transmission has been installed in the car for now.The overdrive transmission is out of the car. It needs some work and is included in the sale of the car.The interior has been modified with a one piece burl walnut dash, AMCO shift knob, a very nice TR4/TR4A "banjo" style steering wheel andtan vinyl/cloth seats, panels and carpet. The horn button is non-functional as is the emergency flasher switch.

The only significant rust on the car is the bottom of the battery box, which would need to be replaced at some point aside from that I'm not aware of any significant rust. A new battery box is about $50 from several sources.
