Simply, the car is a 6-cylinder with a 3-speed manual
transmission. Everything is in the car that was shipped from the factory - except
the driver's outside door handle and the bottom of the front seat. Neither of these
mattered to me, as the intent is to shave the door handles and use "poppers",
and the interior will come from a late model Grand Prix, Grand Am, Buick or Oldsmobile.
The current "mentor" for the car is here:

work to get the car to the same state of "showmanship" as this beautiful maroon
vehicle. While the interior is in rather good shape,
the four fenders will require some work.

the mechanical items yet! |

As can be seen,
the interior items are all there. The steering wheel horn button and chrome horn
ring have been safely put away for future use. A non-operative clock has been
purchased and might be used in place of the clock filler on the glove box door. No
radio came with the car, but a state-of-the-art deck will be installed. |
