Mostly original with a few mods. I added a Mach 1 spoiler, and an Eliminator scoop. The big cost was the 20" rims & tires, ouch.(but they look great)
Just getting started on the engine upgrades at this point. She still has only 85,000 original miles, and has never seen an accident. All numbers matching.My goal is to get it to 350+ hp.( not that I'd use it much ....after all its' just a cruiser)
