got em in. sellers were very nice. 2 hours away. they're in the back like Subaru Brat jump seats for now. smell like rat piss and mildew. that'll be fun to clean. hopefully i didn't bring home any unseen passengers
I'm gonna convert them to manual. or stick em in place. move em with a drill...
Dad said his 83 Medallion had one (i miss that car had the slant 6) when he took the seats out.
no idea where the sheet is.
he had put the plush red seats in that car. looked crazy because he didn't replace the dash or anything. just door panels and seats.
after i take the red bench out. is...
so sad, no hidden build sheet.
i think someone has been back here before, trunk sheet is all tore up and the trim isn't on right. probably from when the previous owner "fixed" the headliner
aiming for Saturday to go up and fet the Fifth Avenue seats.

so many vacuum hoses in this thing
rear main seal. right where it meets the Transmission
might get some oil dye to be certain.
oil level doesn't seem to be going down. can live with it for now. thicker oil in there and some lucas stop leak? stinks up the place. I'm already rolling through the hood looking like Uncle Buck
gonna complain to the BBB
in other news. the car smells like burnt popcorn. we fixed an oil leak at the timing cover but it now seems to be leaking dirty water? not bad leaking, just drops but he's smoking and really stinks. water pump? the AC nor the heat don't work i know that.
i hate to...
