Sorry about that. I bought a one owner 91 LX convertible. Its was a daily driver until about 3 years ago. Lady I bought if from said she refused to get rid of it when her husband said she needed something new. She parked it in the garage and under a car cover. I drove it around some today. It needs paint and some TLC but nothing major. Even had the top replaced a year before it was parked. I was surprised to see the A/C was still super cold after sitting for 3 years. Here's the crazy thing. I only paid 2,000 for the car.

I'm all over it. Already ordered some parts from LMR for the inside. Have 3 quotes for paint too. Trying to decide if I'm going to keep it factory color or go a few shades lighter. I love the velocity blue on the 2019 model. I'm just afraid the color won't match the top. What do you guys think?

Gotta match the top. Even though I dont love the color if your on a budget and cant paint the inside of the doors ect. New paint looks good any color. Whats the average price to paint ?

Anywhere from 1300 for basic base coat/clear coat in factory color up to around 3500 for some other colors i am looking at.
