After alot of hunting and research I finally found replacement seatback release knobs that are oem correct. It turns out that porsche originally founded recaro. The seatback release knobs off of the 911/944 ect are oem correct. (There installed on the car now and look great, I will remove them before i bring my seats in to be recovered)

04/03/09 - Today the transmission cooler lines, power steering pump, high pressure and return line were replaced. (All of which were shot) In addition the rear right tire was remounted as it had a slow leak.

My T/A was built in 03/83 It's now officially 26 years old.

Got my delco cd radio today that matches my interior. I am not going to install it quite yet though.

 

Just purchased a rare oem contoured T handle shifter (I can finaly ditch that cheap one thats stamped "Taiwan") Chinese parts have no place on an american classic.

Dude how goes your site after this train-wreck of an upgrade...good grief! I can't modify my home page! Talk about frustrating...I have put on a new exhaust system, and then attacked the water pump, I went with an Edelbrock Hi-Pro endurashine, it moves the water...and is REAL Shiney!Cheers!Shark~
