It has an aluminum bonnet with strut supports and insulating liner (extra aluminum bonnet included). Plastic hardtop is in good shape, but has some wear marks from previous owner. Very good full tonneau cover, but original soft top is aged and needs to be replaced.Bridgestone Potenza R185/65 radials on Minilite knockoff mag wheels. Wire spoke spare in trunk. Various manuals and books, as well as documents on engine rebuild.This is a fun, very solid daily driver. Not in perfect shape, as it has worn carpeting in the footwells, a slightly aged dash cover, and 15 years on the paint job. But a very sharp looking car, and one that is well worth the asking price.Listing originally posted at http
