2 years of patience finally paid off during which time I had many frustrated moments when I wanted to buy project seats, after market seats even almost pulled a trigger on Recaro comfort seats for $3500. Seats look almost brand new and comes with the railings and all wires though i had to drive 7 hours each way to immediately retrieve them
With cleaning and conditioning, they would be as good as a used set from 20 years ago, can get
Hunt continues for a set of 19" wheels ( SL 63 or 65 19 x 8.5 ET 30 and 19 x 9.5 ET 31-34)
The adjustable seat controls hopefully work. I don't believe mine have ever worked since I bought it back in 2015 which it had 102,000 on the car.
so no worries. It's a pretty simple system. You can access all the lines via the back panel. A couple screws on the back panel at the bottom and push down to remove. Next thing to check would be compressor or fuses.
I had a leaky side bolster and replaced it as well as added more padding.
Had these Forgestars custom made 19 x 9 - 255/35 and 19 x 10 - 295/30 --- absolute no rubbing and no spacers
Have not taken it out for spin yet.
Pretty pleased with them so far,
Ran into a little snag when took it our for a spin. One of the rear wheel started making kinda ticking sound and after couple of hours of poking around, turned out to be the lug botls that were tad bit longer, fixed. Still haven't taken it out yet and tried duplicationg the sound while on the lift, nada, sounds good.
Took it out for a spin and absolutely no vibration, drove buttery smooth.
Need to get planted sliding rails to lower the Recaros a little bit and also be able to move the seats back and forth
Have a thicker sport steering wheel, need to install that now
Transmission fluid needs changing too
Few more pictures from this morning.... Lovely car but has several annoying little things ever since my purchase from 2 years ago which i have recently started sorting it out.
Really love these custom Forgestar wheels.
James at wheels designers was pleasure to work with.
Certain angles, it makes me wonder if 19" wheels too big for these cars, what you all think?
Ordered a transmission fluid change kit from Pelican parts today.
