Inside, the interior offers a comfortable and authentic experience with maroon vinyl bench seats and matching door panels that complement the classic exterior.

Key-start ignition and a functional AM/FM/CD radio enhance convenience and entertainment, making every journey enjoyable and stylishly comfortable.
Under the hood, you'll find a 255 Flathead V8 engine paired with a 3-speed manual transmission, delivering a smooth and engaging drive.

The rear end features a 1955 Ford unit with 3.55 gears, while power front disc brakes and power drum brakes in the rear offer confident stopping power. This combination ensures that the vintage cruiser handles with a modern edge.
