This blue-plate California car is equipped with a manual transmission, inline-six engine, SU dual carburetors, 'C'-type cylinder head, drum brakes, Smiths instrumentation, a Moto-Lita wood-rimmed steering wheel, wire wheels, Jaguar-branded two-eared knock-off wheel spinners, and Firestone tires.

The head of this vehicle has also received special attention, with new valves & guides, 3-angle seats, cam bushings, valve-seals on the intake side, tappet lock plates, and clearances adjusted.
