MECHANICAL:
She comes with her original L81 5.7L (350cid) V8 4Bbl Engine.

Her L81 engine is mated to her original 3-Speed Turbo-Hydramatic Automatic Transmission.
She has HEI electronic Ignition, tainless steel, ree-flow exhaust manifolds and lightweight magnesium valve rocker covers in black with bright ribbed surface.
Her automatic transmission included a converter clutch feature in 2nd and 3rd gears.

The standard anti-theft system was improved for 1981 by adding a starter-interrupt feature that disables the starter circuit if a forced entry is detected.
Arming of the system is obtained by using the manual lock or power door control on the driver's door.
Simply unlocking the driver's door with the key will disarm the system.

She has a thermostatically-controlled auxiliary electric fan to boost cooling.
The auxilliary electric fan cuts in if supplemental cooling is needed.
This allowed a smaller fan with fewer, ower pitched fan blades for reduced fan drag and a quieter operation.

Her engine air cleaner has the original chrome cover.

Her brakes are hydraulic, ented four wheel discs that are 11.75-inch diameter with single calipers.

Her Front suspension is Independent with unequal-length control arms with ball joints, coil springs, nd stabilizer bar.
Her Rear suspension is also Independent with trailing link and transverse semi-elliptic mono- leaf springs.

BODY:
The new Bowling Green plant had a brand new paint facility and used enamels with clear top coats.
A new two-tone paint process was available for the first time from this factory and this sporty coupe has a beautiful Beige/Bronze paint job.

Her frame features a cross-member for transmission (with bolting assembly for transmission).
The frame is all welded (full length), adder constructed.
The full frame includes four cross-members and is sealed with a corrosion resistant material.
The body is constructed of a corrosion-resistant, teel-reinforced fiberglass.

The rear energy-absorbing bumper features twin hydraulic shock absorbers.

The hood and doors are constructed of fiberglass and feature a double-panel construction method.
The roof assembly features two removable glass roof panels with added sun shades.

INTERIOR:
Her Camel Leather interior looks almost new as you would expect to see in a car with so few miles.
She has all her original panels, arpet and seat covers.
