earth. The headlights, taillights, brake lights, turn signals, flashers, horn, interior panel lights, windshield washers and wipers all work.
Oil Pressure Gauge and Water Temperature Gauge work great. Other gauges do not read correctly. RPM Gauge does not work at all. The speedometer does not read correctly and can be noisy sometimes. I use an app on my phone (digihud) for a speedometer.
The interior has new carpet, the original Mark 3 seats and original wood veneer panels. The wood veneer panels are cracking, but still look great for a 50 year old car.
The car comes with many original and new parts, some new in the box. Here are just a few of the parts that are included:
