thanks bro.it's going to be drive only on a nice sunny day type of car. I don't know why he changed out the original tail lights I've to run around looking for original harnesses and tail lights to bring her back to her self again. I've also replaced the headlights because when I trying to take it out and clean and restore I've broked the tab and couldn't find the broken tab so I got used set from ebay..

The previous owner want 6700 for but I've haggling him for a few months he eventually came down to 5800. I don't know if it's a good deal or not but by seeming other members here paid less than mine.

I just swapped by old tarnished gold emblems for new chrome ones. Looks much better and a cheap mod to boot.

great looking car man

I've seen that DIY and it does goes well with the trims on the tail lights. If my emblems are getting old I'll take that route.
