to bad they refurbed the seats in the wrong color

Bart,

Not a bad looking Series 1, it's also too bad the dash is covered with a half dash cap. After all the time and money the spent on the car, why not restore the dash or get a new one?

Robert,

You'r right, didn't even notice it at first ! I need to learn to look more carefully.

I'm currently also in the process of repairing the cracks, but so far didn't found a company willing to take the challenge.

Gr Bart.

In the description it says they are synthetic leather and based on the stitching they are the same ones I put in my 240z. Even though they were described as black they are really more of a dark charcoal. Given the color and condition that car will hit $15K or very close to it.

Bart:

Agreed - the seats look odd. But you could reupholster them, and get the proper door panels. You could put the "snaps" on that new carpet set as well. Nothing that $1500.00 wouldn't correct. I'd go with a FULL Dash Cap as well... never liked the half caps..

I don't like seeing the strut mounting studs/nuts painted.. It is just so easy to remove the nuts and mask of the studs. The paint under the hood seems too dull as well. Then too you might as well take the tie-downs/tow hooks off and return them to black. That Blue fan would have to go - replaced with a newer plastic one.. just to be safe.

The Tail Lights look great - but you'd have to refinish the tail light finisher...

All picky cosmetic stuff - but added all together it will hurt the value somewhat..

FWIW,

Also looks likes there's a nut missing on the left strut mounting in the engine bay ?
