An AM-FM-cassette stereo system with upgraded speakers and a hidden antenna was installed. The cooling system was similarly upgraded with high flow fans and rebuilt radiator.

Modifications for reliable starting were also made to the fuel system resulting in a strong driver. All paint, upholstery, trim and brightwork continues to present well today - a tribute to the exceptional quality of the Lamborghini marque.
