wow congrats on the new legend

 

I should know this... What is the green called???

WW:dunno:

 

Sherwood Green and nice car! the sidemarkers are ehhhhhhhh, doesn't fit the shape of the car

 

Three Legends. You're always trying to one-up me, aren't you? j/k. Congrats on the acquisition -- the car sounds like an incredible deal given its extensive and meticulous maintenance history. Post up your spreadsheet once you've got it all documented. And I can't wait to see the finished product with the GS rims, rebadging, and few other goodies you've got in store. Like you said, it will be a whole new car. Will you have Leo paint the grille surround on this one?

 

+1, it's sherwood green...

my fav. The GS wheels will look fanstatic on it.

GREAT find.

 

The side markers will go away, they're part of the UK retrofit. The rear fog light might stay, for nostalgia. I'll catch an early G-2 grill and have him do the surround when the bumper and hood are done.
It'll look different by Sunday night... GS rims and maybe the badging, I have everything but the green 'A' for the trunk. I'll drive it a while before it gets paint work, windshield will be next week.
I'm astonished by the amounts of $$$ spent on this car. I spent some time with the seller going through the documents, especially the export/import docs, very interesting reading. The pics on the eBay did not do it justice, when I first saw the car I did a double take to confirm it was the right one.
Best was I got for it basically what I first offered.
I know someone in East Texas that will be happy, he gets a white Legend... I know a female that's peeved... She loves the white Legend and hates green cars... LOL
Pics will come Sunday!
BTW: The LS rims are chrome under all the garbage, they'll be for sale.

Your nuts man, hey BTW we are trying to get a meet together in houston in the next month or so, click the link in my sig for details...

nice pickup

 

dude WTF! u need all these legends or are you trying to find legends for all ur wheels? lookin good though, the wheels need to go, but i kinda like the sidemarkers, i'd get nicer markers though, something more Legend JDM style... Can't wait for whats in store for her!

 

nice find. congrats

 

Nice find with decent price locally nightshift. Congratulation for another Legend. BTW: Are you planning to meet together in Houston in the next month or so? Check austin sig.

 

Nice collection you have going there Wayne. Congrats!

 

I'll check out the dates, last Houston meet no one showed...
Might be a good idea to change the side marker light instead of remove them.
Any ideas for an attractive light?

there is no set date yet, we are still getting input from houston members for a route to take. i think towards the end of april would be enough time for us to figure out where to go, and hopefully weather will get better.

Just check it out wayne, yea i know, last meet was shit, but im sure if we get people to go for a drive they will turn out, i know i will

 

personally, i like the 3-series sidemarker is nice. or maybe you can fit the new TL side marker, its really really nice!

 

Something like this?

It would be easier/cheaper to change the side marker than paint the fenders.
The ones on it now are 'utility only' for the conversion.
Besides, I'd like to keep the UK retrofit on the car.

Cleaning The Engine...

Get it warm, soak it with Simple Green, rinse with garden hose?

I get mine real warm, spray it down with water, windex the shit out of everything (I'm talking like, Windex 'til your hand hurts from pumping the sprayer and half the bottle is gone) I let it penetrate for a a minute or two and then blast it all back off with water... keep it running, then take it out on the road and drive it around for a little while (high speed, sometimes I flog it a bit) so nothing is left wet and sitting when I'm done. Then I wash the exterior of the car. Once that's done, I'll treat whatever surfaces (underhood and otherwise) I want with an appropriate dressing.

So yeah, simple green might work just as well!

 

yea those should look sick!

 

i have a coupe emblem in green, dont know if its the same but i'll send some pics i just took of it. check email.


i cant load the pics and theyre too big. and i'm having trouble resizing. this aint my thing. i have to send email offsite.

 

Nice Wayne! Too bad you couldn't grab that GS up here, but I know you were ok with that one. Can't wait to see it once you've given it the Wayne-Over

 

That would have been sweet... It went fast. But, I paid allot less for this one and the paper trail is complete.
As I suspected it was kissed in the ass in '98. Doesn't look anything major, bumper cover, taillight lenses and a little work on the right 1/4.
It was a $1400 bill.
I'll pick it up early morning and take it down to an empty rent house. I have the wheels and stuff stored there. Big driveway and garage to play, course it's full of building materials too...
Tomorrow= big day...

^^ The Tyson Trademark Key Hand-off Picture!! I love it! lol

And Wayne, your t-shirt is cracking me up...

MORE pics with the GS wheels on soon please!

 

Here's a few quick ones, running late for dinner...

WWatriot:

 

Im jealous...my daughter says she still wants a legend even though I have sold mine off so the search will be starting here soon.

congrats on the new baby

 

The badging is changed except the 'A'. One's on the way from a forum member...
Didn't have a hex wrench to remove the licence plate frame.

The rear UK plate, he's sending the front.

Awesome! The car looks completely different already... The polished GS wheels set it off nicely.

 

so that Legend is a hybird gen between USDM and JDM. nice car lol.

 

I wouldn't say it's a hybrid, but either way, it's been retrofitted to meet EDM standards since the car was imported to the UK and then exported back to the US.

Wayne - I kinda like the side markers

 

damn noice! looks so much better with the GS wheels! and lack of gold......
