Well i picked up my Christmas presents to myself today, it has only taken me 4 weeks to get them. Comfort, Escalade leather seats and console. Joy, a 502 Ramjet

.
Now I just have to find time to work on the project. Here is a link to some pics of the project, www.cardomain.com/memberpage/492115/1 I still have a long way to go, but collecting many parts in the process. Ill post the pics of the engine and seats tomorrow, run out of light after the 9 hr road trip.

later, Darren

REPO1 · 01-15-2005, 01:47 PM

Where did you find the seats, and what kind of price were they here in Canada?

low burb · 01-15-2005, 02:57 PM

Woo hoo, Darren!! Where are the pics!!!! jk It's too cold for pics.

WOW.... love the seats..

I'm watching some leather seats out of an escalade on Ebay right now...luckily I live in MI where the seller is so I can save on the shipping....

Does anyone think I should post the ebay auction so others can choose to NOT bid against me?.... :-)

yeah nice pull, you should be riding in comfort when hauling a$$

classicchev · 01-15-2005, 04:10 PM

Thanks guys, got the seats off Ebay shipped from NY to Montana was around 1000 us. You will never find any in Canada for this price, unless you part one out or steal it. Going to try to install a set of fronts in the rear, nave a escalade console also that im going to make work. Ill even have 4 cup holders!

Finally added a couple pics on the cardomain site, Ill add a couple
