Although this is a restored model and not extensively modified, there are certain things which have been changed on the car. The most obvious of them in the stunning matte black paint on the car. The chrome parts beautifully contrast with the black color and gives the car a very unique look. There are also some parts which belong to later generation Ambassadors like the chrome grille with the turn indicators and the front and rear bumpers as well. The wheels also get the same matte black treatment with the outer ring of the steel rim painted in white.
