THE BODY: This is an all original panel never rusted car. The prep and paint work was professionally done by Big Power Racing of Bayshore New York. The hood was upgraded to a cowl style hood at this time and the car was repainted the original Burnt Orange color it was born with. Black Rally Stripes were added and had firemist added to them to match the sparkle of the Burnt Orange.
THE CHASSIS AND FLOORPANS: The Chassis was prepped and treated with multiple Coats of Chassis paint. Rust preventative encapsulator was sprayed inside the Chassis rails to discourage any rust in the future. The floor pans and inner wells were also prepped and treated with Chassis paint as well, then sprayed with Eastwood bedliner. The original undercoat was left intact as it was as good as the day it was sprayed. It was all prepped before Chassis paint and bedliner were sprayed. As you can see, underneath looks fantastic.

Both were still in great shape but replaced to make it perfect. Additionally a Retro-Sound replacement radio, which fits perfectly and looks like the factory radio.
