Well to be honest, my upholstery guy did the seats backwards on how I originally wanted. I wanted them like most others do, dark where the butt and lower back are. Now that I have these, I may do some more 2 tone to match...still undecided.

So you're the one who bought my old car. LOL

I saw this listed on CL a couple months back and tried to contact the seller but it must have already been sold.

Really cool to see it fixed up. That has a 5mt flywheel installed and gutted precats. Not sure why the seats fell apart. They were ok when I had it. I conditioned them like 20 times. Might have been a few too many.

Think there's still some threads around here from when I had it. Loved that car. Sold it and bought a pontoon boat with the funds.

Glad you have it.

I think it would have looked better if he did it like these.

Yep and its mostly a straight shot from Dallas on I20. Just pass Jonslegend and I in 'Bama on your way to Atl. Pick up I85 there until you pass Greenville SC and then hit I24 amd you're pretty much there. You should get Stella, Legend_101, legend37 & even Mstylz to name a few Dallas guys to caravan on over with you! Yeah that was a "call out" challenge on those fellas!

I was thinking this car looked VERY familiar. Now I can rest racking my brains on it Ryan. I agree with Dreams on doing a full two tone interior! Basically do your door panel inserts and maybe speaker grills and you'll be QUITE pleased with the look imho. Check out my current setup pics in my album.

Less miles if he takes the northern route through Memphis. Something like 930 miles but they are irrelevant right now.

How old are you Hockeyman?

I've driven my Legend 5 times from Duluth, Georgia to Maplewood, Minnesota in one day. 1,130 miles. If I can do it, and I'm a young 55 now, you have this trip in the bag.

Carol will leave the light on for you at the hotel.

Really? You're exactly the guy I need to talk to. Any information you can give me about the motor, please do tell. The guy I bought it from claimed that the owner before him had the motor rebuilt at around 150-160K miles due to a BHG. Any maintenance history you can provide me? When did you buy/sell it? Mileage when you had it? Sorry for the 21 questions, this has me excited
