All seals and gaskets were replaced as well. It has a new distributor with electronic ignition and wiring harness, as well as complete rewiring, plugs, wires, Edelbrock air filter with chrome cover, heavy-duty battery, Toyota condenser and driver, hoses, heating and defrost system.

It also features seatbelts for all four seats with shoulder harnesses in the front, locking under-seat and center-console Tuffy boxes with cup holders in center console, and Polk Audio Wakeboard speakers. The totally new tub with floor interior is LINE-X-covered and protected.

The exterior features include a removable hardtop with full ambulance doors, roof rack and lined on the interior with 1/16' black wetsuit material, bimini top and fabric doors, custom rear tire holder fabricated by Piper Motorsports, with soft-top for a Baja look and rigid LED driving lights.
