The car is finished in black and silver with red pinstripes and 1978 Indianapolis 500 pace car graphics. Features include pop-up headlights, removable glass T-tops, a wrap-around rear window, front and rear spoilers, and dual exhaust outlets. Fade spots and burn marks are noted in the paint, and one of the headlights extends and retracts more slowly than the other.
Eight-slot 15″ alloy wheels are wrapped in 255/60 Goodyear GT Radial tires with raised white lettering. The car is equipped with power-assisted four-wheel disc brakes, power steering, and the optional Gymkhana suspension package.
The seats are upholstered in silver leather, and the cabin features a matching dashboard, door panels, and carpeting. Amenities include a tilt-telescopic steering column, cruise control, a push-button AM/FM radio, a rear window defroster, and power windows, mirrors, and door locks.
The leather-wrapped steering wheel frames a 140-mph speedometer and a tachometer with a 5,600-rpm redline. An analog clock and gauges for coolant temperature, fuel level, oil pressure, and voltage are located in the center stack. The five-digit odometer shows 9k miles.
The L82 350ci V8 was introduced as an option in 1978 and was factory rated at 220 horsepower and 260 lb-ft of torque. Features included a higher lift camshaft, cylinder heads with larger valving, impact-extruded pistons, a forged crankshaft with four-bolt main bearing caps, and finned aluminum rocker arm covers.
Power is sent to the rear wheels via a four-speed close-ratio manual transmission.
