MY LEGEND REJUVENATION - Page 3

Glad you're happy Mike, that's what I aim for. I enjoyed working on the car for you. She should be good to go for a long while now. The peace of mind will be nice I'm sure, sucks spending $ but it's worth it in the long run.

This was my second big restoration project for a forum member. First was Acts238, and now you. Hopefully I'll get to tear into Tyson's coupe one of these days lol.

I'm getting ready to buy a Type II off of EZgoinLegend, and need someone to put it in, might as well try to do the rest of the car while i'm at it..what you think?

Hey Lord Fauntleroy, I just complained about it to you on the phone cause I had just seen some new shit when I washed and needed to vent. .

That, i can say, is the first time i've seen this level of restoration done on a 2ndGen Legend. I had almost that level, but not everything was done at the same time

. Differential Replacement, Transmission Rebuild, Hoses, headgaskets, cooling system flush, new fluids.

Two thumbs up

Yea it seems I got "the works".

Thanks for that comment Ivan, I'm feelin' good right about now.

I just want a price tag for that baby. so I know when another 100 thousand miles come along what amount of money I need to have.

Like I have already said to quite a few other members...

If you are interested and serious in having work done by him in NC, PM Ken for a quote on what you specifically need done.
