Cool Want to see a $70,000 1990 LS400

Hey all

I was going thru some old duPont Registry magazine and found this ad in the December 1997 issue.

This Picture and Text is all i know about this car. Maybe you know more? I just thought you may get a kick out of seeing it.

That "face" on those wheels decribes how I feel about them.

The targa on the LS looks like it they Mickey Moused it, but Newport Convertibles is very reputable for their convertible work. http://secure1advancedemedia.com/new...423716597649&. I've seen some SC's that were done and they looked tight!
