Bucky92 Posted April 12, 2008 Author Share Posted April 12, 2008 For those who wanted interior pics and shots of my louvers: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chef_tim Posted April 12, 2008 Share Posted April 12, 2008 Those Louvers just trippled in price on Ebay . I can't even remember what a rust free under belly looks like, you got a great score on that one. Seems like the coupes are getting very popular, might need a www.ea81coupe.net site:banana: :banana: ^^^^^ (not a real site, yet) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NV Zeno Posted April 12, 2008 Share Posted April 12, 2008 OMG that interior is BEAUTIFUL! :slobber: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeneralDisorder Posted April 12, 2008 Share Posted April 12, 2008 I have a set of those exact same seats in my Hatch - they too came from a coupe. I got them from Rob No vinyl on the covers except the sides that you don't touch. Very choice - on mine the foam is pretty far gone - I would reccomend you consider having new foam put in at least the drivers seat before the metal starts rubbing on the material. It happens to all the EA81 seats on the drivers side unfortunately. That's a nice coupe - some rare bits on it too. But it's not at all unusual to find EA81's in that overall condition here. Just don't see many coupes, and I've never personally seen a set of louvers. Even here those are rare. I have no rust to speak of on any of my 3 EA81's, nor have I ever had one with considerable rust. I have seen a few on the coast that were horribly rotten from the salt air - but they are beach locals. Hope you get to see the pacific ocean before you leave.

jonas Posted April 12, 2008 Share Posted April 12, 2008 hey!!! you said you had pics of the kitty in the car! those seats look comfy. have thought about swapping different seats (something more comfortable) into my wagon but they are like new, really they are, so i hate to ditch them.

Durania Posted April 13, 2008 Share Posted April 13, 2008 Looks like you have minimal shifter slop too. You have got quite the prize there Connie. If I didn't cut the wires off my analog EA81 cluster and hung it on my wall, you could have it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately I didn't have my back turned so you got the ugly side of me. It was nice to meet you and everyone else, I had a blast hanging with Turbone's kids:cool: at the end of the table. Enjoy the rest of your time here and have a safe trip back home and take good care of that sweet little coupe. Frank:headbang: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you talkin about me or the car??? I figure I'll be able to get to the bodywork about July 5th or so when the 70+ degree weather and sunshine comes back. :cool: Until then I'll just stay in the fast lane so everyone sees the passenger side as I pass by.

Turbone Posted April 14, 2008 Share Posted April 14, 2008 Briggs, you never should have said anything :-p And Connie told me to post it, cause she hasnt seen it yet. Give her something giggle about when she gets home. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Psyko Posted April 14, 2008 Share Posted April 14, 2008 Frank BTW Nice to meet you too Psyko! Custom apple stickers for wccs10? Just a thought. Oh yes, let's make my wagon infamous. Briggs, you never should have said anything :-p >>Terrible picture. Waste of bandwidth.<< And Connie told me to post it, cause she hasnt seen it yet. Give her something giggle about when she gets home. Gee thanks. So much for "guys having to stick together." Actually, the picture doesn't make it looks nearly as uncomfortable as it really was.

markjw Posted April 15, 2008 Share Posted April 15, 2008 Hi Turbone, Mark down here in Yelm...I just wanted to say I've watched this whole thing with Connie and her dream car play out for a couple/three months now and it's been a hoot. I'm kinda bummed its over. But thats not what I wanted to say. Um, mostly I just wanted to say even thou I have never met you, I can tell that your a fantastic person and you and several others up your way deserve a huge round of applause from everybody involved with the USMB for pulling this whole thing off. You guys rock! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bucky92 Posted April 15, 2008 Author Share Posted April 15, 2008 Hey Mark..They do Rock..Thats why I love them so much. Without Rob and Briggs .I dont think finding a coupe in that good of condition would have been possible...and they gave me a reason to finally get to the West Coast. Its great out there. I was glad to come home..but sad to leave behind those I care so much for. They are my Family..hard for others to understand but thats what I consider them and thats how I feel about them:) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
