Power windows add a touch of modern convenience, allowing for easy adjustment with the push of a button. The four-spoke steering wheel frames VDO instrumentation including a 160-mph speedometer, a 7k-rpm tachometer, a clock, and gauges for coolant temperature, oil pressure, and fuel level. The six-digit odometer shows 76k miles, although true mileage is unknown.
