j_mezz Posted August 27, 2008 Report Share Posted August 27, 2008 I own a white on graphite 93 vert and dream of one day owning a dark teal on buckskin like yours. Yeah, me too. Really like that color combo. Too bad they only did that color in 95. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swift13 Posted August 27, 2008 Report Share Posted August 27, 2008 i dunno some days i feel good about it and most of the time i just dont like the tan so that is why i have decided to swap it for the charcoal int. i too have a dream but that is to make the car black on white with black the top will soon be changed to black too and then after that the paint is going to white Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ManicMechanic Posted September 4, 2008 Report Share Posted September 4, 2008 I already had the second one. I must of gotten it from a salvage auction. You are one great VIN hunter! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldscsc Posted September 4, 2008 Report Share Posted September 4, 2008 There sure seems to be a lot of 3.1 convertibles in junkyards compared to LQ1 cars. I wonder why that is, just this thread and the small percentage listed (coincedence) or something else. I figured it'd be the other way, since the large majority of them were 3.4's Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tdvs Posted September 4, 2008 Report Share Posted September 4, 2008 I already had the second one. I must of gotten it from a salvage auction. You are one great VIN hunter! Just happens I am looking for a couple of tan interior parts for my '95 vert, so verts are all I look for. Of course, if I find good vert exclusive parts I think I might need in the future, I grab them too. Going to Green Bay, WI next week, for a week, and will see what I can find up there. Won't have access to a computer for 2 weeks tho, so any results will have till I get home. Tom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As you know those are vert exclusive. Headrests from a coupe would work tho. Tom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

swift13 Posted September 6, 2008 Report Share Posted September 6, 2008 that was quick how recent?? when a car comes into the yards by me , no matter how quick it gets torn down it stays out there for at least 2 weeks most of the time longer.
