The ac needs a few hoses made and a few other small items to be connected to work. All guages connected and work ..All lights are functional as they should be....
It is an ALL STEEL body conversion which took hundreds of hours to complete.. look at the custom fab details like the windshield, the top clamps and the trunk and fenders... All steel no fiberglass. Thats what gives this convertible its value...

Car suspension is very overbuilt and designed although it still looks like it came from the factory..
This was a Professional Build with everything done right!! Not a hack job backyard project.
