Any pictures under hood, interior, modifications to frame for trans upgrade, suspension front to back.
 
Any before restoration pictures? What was done to the body? Pictures of the engine bay, interior, trunk and the underneath.
Thanks

All the pics I have are on the website, just click Show More at the bottom.

TBH, I can't speak to any frame modifications because the previous owner did the change. Suspension doesn't have any modifications other than my change to KYB shocks.

You are correct. In the next day or so, I'll take some new pics to alleviate any concerns that those pictures are still valid.

This guy sent me an email asking, what else I needed to see in order to make an offer. I asked him if I could drive it. He still hasn’t responded to me. This may be a fake ad.

Just sayin’,

He has been a member since 2015 where he started asking about console parts for this exact car. Don't accuse him of anything unless you know for sure it's true.
 
I haven't posted much but I am legit and in California, so I apologize in advance for the Central and Eastern zones for delayed responses.

And yes, one headrest. That's how I bought it and since I'm typically rolling solo and there's no holes, I didn't bother to make it right. I never got the story from the previous owner.

I did see your email, it's been busy week, so I ask a little grace. You'll see a reply today.
 
Head restraint on one side only (either side) was an available option combo.

It would be cool to see that verified on the build sheet.

Do you have that?

I don't think they coded that on the fender tag.

Unfortunately, I don't recall coming across a build sheet. My upholstery guy only fixed the passenger seat but I never looked in the driver's or rear seats, which I don't believe have ever been removed.

I will provide all the build documentation that came w/ the car. Here's a pic, zoom in at your pleasure.

BTW, thanks for the headrest history.

I didn’t accuse him of anything. The word may was used. This may be….is how it was phrased. I live in California and have cash in hand, but got no response to my test drive request.

Anyway…
 
  • Stock interior, never removed from car
  • Front seats, burlap refurbished several years ago by Mr. Stitch in San Mateo, CA
  • Floor carpet re-done with Dynamat underneath
That's confusing...
 
Is it possible to post a cold start and walk around video to hear the motor running and also clear up any legitimacy concerns.
Thanks

Are seats interchangeable from driver to passenger? First pics shows no head rest on driver then last pic shows the opposite?

I can confirm no because of the seat adjustment on the outside of the seats and chrome trim on the insides.
 
Then how do you explain showing pictures with head rest on the passenger seat then another picture with the head rest on the drivers seat?
