The car has been fitted with Air Lift 3H air ride suspension and a suspension kit from BC FABS in the USA. I found this car in the USA and imported it myself and over the period of 2 years its received a total restoration. I can't think of a part that hasn't been restored or repaired. Its been a personal passion project with no expense spared. A few highlights. Totally stripped and repainted with original coloured paint. Roof mechanism and all windows working correctly (a very complicated job that took months). New soft top. Original radio sent away and bluetooth and iPod connectivity installed and matched to a small hidden subwoofer. Total engine rebuild, A/C rebuilt, new tyres, all brakes discs, pads, all lines. Differential rebuilt. Really every little thing works on this car. Its been my mantra on this car to keep it original as possible whilst putting it on air ride and keeping any tech hidden. The car is currently in Abu Dhabi UAE as thats where I live, but I can help with export.
