Here are some things that could still be done to the car: Install audio system Install air conditioning Install electronic ignition and have carburetors rebuilt. This would net a small improvement in power and idle, but probably isn’t worth the cost. Get black California plates. Damp a few minor interior rattles.
This car has been completely disassembled, repaired and rebuilt with the utmost care. The above list does not include the many, many little parts that had to be replaced or repaired along the way. I hope you will appreciate it as much as I have.
