The 500ci V8 features a Rochester Quadrajet four-barrel carburetor and was factory rated at 190 horsepower and 360 lb-ft of torque. The radiator and air conditioning compressor were replaced and the system was converted to utilize R134a refrigerant in 2008.

Power is routed to the front wheels via a Turbo Hydra-Matic three-speed automatic transmission.

The cabin features a power-adjustable front bench trimmed in Black Sierra Grain leather, and amenities include an AM/FM stereo with an eight-track cassette player as well as an illuminated thermometer, cruise control, a power trunk-lid release, automatic climate control, Twilight Sentinel automatic headlights, power door locks, and power windows. The power antenna motor and the heater core have been replaced in 2009.

The three-spoke steering wheel frames a 100-mph speedometer and a fuel level gauge. The five-digit odometer shows 3,200 miles.
