The heads are built to W30 C-heads specs, with roller rockers, large valves and comp studs. The motor is topped off with an Edelbrock intake and a Holley 750 CFM carburetor, it has a MSD Electronic distributor and ignition for reliable starting and performance running. To stay cool an aluminum radiator with duel fans has been added. This car has headers with a new Flowmaster exhaust system.

The drive train is finished off with a new driveline and the rear end has been rebuilt with 373 Auburn gears with a posi-tract differential, the front coil springs have been replaced as well as the tie rod ends. The rear axle has a traction control link system installed.

A new convertible top has been added and the electronic and hydraulic controls have been replaced and work smoothly.
