man, im relieved that i do have a real (kinda crappy) sho. lol
i noticed that the center console looks to have been cut to fit in.. weird..
BUT, i went to a junkyard and then have a red 91 sho.. most the parts i had wanted are gone, but the seats are there.. it's that 50/50 leather/cloth combo.. they're really dirty. same color as my seats.. so i figured, i'll just get those.. front and backs.
oh, and get the full center console!
i may also take 3 of the door panels from this red sho, as well as the back driverside door.. (with the 4th door panel)
i think mine was hit and it's now stuck in. (where the door closes, it's dented all weird) and i do need both of the mirrors, lol..

how much should i offer for all of this??

as for the overheating.. it may be the water pump. did that compression test and it didn't really hold 18 psi.. water didn't get in the oil, so i was happy about that.. it also looks like i have a cracked coolant reservoir thing.. it wasn't leaking from the radiator..
if it were leaking from the freeze plugs, would it come out the same as a bad WP??
