It was mini-tubbed and features custom polished wheels. The wheelbase was stretched 4 inches to the rear to accommodate the custom rear wheels and to keep the factory look of the fins behind the doors in the lower part of the quarter-panels. New pinch welds were installed to retain the factory appearance. It has a factory steel body, except the aftermarket 6-inch cowl-induction hood.
