The car has new rear springs and rebuilt original lever arm shocks. Front end suspension and steering has been redone with new tie-rods, bushings, ball-joints and new GAZ adjustable shocks. Additionally the roadster has received new brake master cylinders, new wheel cylinders, new brake shoes and new brake hoses. The steel-disc wheels are fitted with period correct Universal tires. The instrumentation is original to the car and they are rebuilt. In the trunk of this highly-detailed example is the original jack and lug wrench.
