While the car had an older frame-up restoration, the tan Connolly leather interior remains in good order for its age. The description indicates that the car was well-maintained by its previous owners. The color scheme was changed to an attractive Delft Blue with cream inserts in a bare-metal repaint. All chrome trim that required refinishing was properly replated, and new wiring installed throughout.
