Originally finished in Columbia Blue, this car has been repainted in off-white, and various imperfections in the finish are shown in the photo gallery below. Modifications include a peaked hood with custom louvers, peaked fenders, frenched 1956 Oldsmobile headlight buckets, shaved door and trunk handles, hood pins, rubber trunk hold-downs, a front fender-mounted electrical cutoff switch, dual side exhaust exits, and numerous decals. Lettering on the front hood celebrates the 6,571 miles traversed by the car from Los Angeles to the start of the Carrera Panamericana, over the event course, and then back to Los Angeles, while also listing the eight years it successfully completed the event under current ownership.
