Very nice and clean. Are those the stock seats? They look different.

They look like LSi seats. But let's hear this Unbelievable History.

I'll get to the history at some point just don't have the patience to write it up. Maybe Laurel can help :lol: about 5 people got the long winded version last night. Those are leather and as far as I know original from the first owner. Has the leather door inserts as well.

Not much really though I do switch off, depending on which mood I'm in. If I want to have fun, be inconspicuous, or get dirty I drive the legacy. If I want to relax or be noticed I drive the svx. :)

I'm in for a little story time as well! That is one heck of a well-perserved Legacy. Even mine's not that clean! Wonderful catch.

I do believe some SS's came with leather seats, just few of them are in that good of condition. There is an SS in lakewood that has the same seats.

$1900 T&L delivered to T-town from Seattle for the rolling chassis with fresh blown head gasket. then had to buy my old motor $450 and I went ahead and had a guy do all the swap of my block because it was during the holidays and I had a full plate of shit and just didn't have time to do the project and have it laying around. So i'm into it about 3k. but it's fresh & clean. :lol:

Jim, PM me about that tranny, yo!
But in the long-winded version, didn't you say that you thought there was tranny fluid leaking from something when during your car-b-que?

new car=dead sexy.

I'd liken the better looking front end to your wife's, but it's probably not a good idea. ;)
