The interior boasts seats taken from a modern Mustang, a tilt steering column with a custom grooved steering wheel, and a bluetooth stereo sound bar is mounted in the headliner area. Additional switches control exhaust cutouts, an electric fan, and a line lock, enhancing the driving experience. The side and rear glass is tinted red.
