There will be some cosmetic work done in our shop as well as some other stuff. Also I plan to update the bravo to a newer heavier one as well as some other perf work in our shop as well over the winter.. Jamie / Lakeside

Thanks.. The engine is a stock 454 Mag/Bravo (currently).. I am ok with the upholstery, but it is not my Fav either.. I at somepoint will probably convert it to somthing similar to a Savanah Beige, or more like a color in an actuall Ferrari.. I think it would look better. I will probably update the gauges at some point too.. Jamie / Lakeside

Thanks Peter.. Ya never know.. But it isn't restored, it is original.. I just plan to do some of my own updating & enhancements... Mainly, drive, engine, steering, interior & trailer. Jamie / Lakeside
