The cabin features black upholstery with grey carpets and wood accents, and the front seats appear to have been recovered according to the seller. Rear seat passengers are provided with foot rests, folding wind deflectors, and curtains. The seller notes chips and fading in the wood trim, splits in the rear seat, and discoloration in the headliner. Instrumentation includes a 140-mph speedometer, a tachometer, an analog clock, and a vertical housing containing auxiliary gauges and warning lights. The 5-digit odometer shows 90k miles, fewer than 100 of which have been added by the current owner. The radio is said to turn on, but does not work.
