The following components were rebuilt (I have documentation to support these rebuilds):
•	Engine 
•	Transmission
•	Rear Differential
•	Both Carburetors
•	Speedometer/Odometer
•	Tach
•	Fuel Gauge
•	Temp Gauge
•	Battery Gauge
•	Oil Gauge
•	Wonderbar Radio
        Clock
•	Wiper Motor
•	Wiper Transmissions
•	Windshield Washer Pump
•	Generator
•	Starter
•	Both Horns
•	Convertible Top Frame
•	All Chrome was Re-chromed
The following modifications (non-stock) were made as follows:
•	The engine rebuild included roller lifters and a high performance camshaft. 
•	The single master cylinder was changed to a dual master cylinder (one line to the front wheels, and a separate line to the back wheels).
•	Radial tires were used.
•	The seats were reupholstered with leather (original seat frames were used).
•	Leather was used on the door panels instead of vinyl.
•	A Fi-Tech fuel injection system was installed, which required an Edelbrock intake manifold and valve covers (I have the original intake manifold, valve covers and carburetors available should a new owner want to revert to stock).
•	An after-market oil pan is installed (I have the original oil pan, but it has a hairline leak that needs to be welded by an expert).
•	An updated oil filter system is being used (I have the original canister should a new owner want to revert to stock).
•	A smaller steering wheel was installed (I have the original steering wheel should a new owner want to revert to stock).
All components work as designed, although some components that cannot be rebuilt were replaced with OEM replacement parts (if available).
