how many guys here have Leather Sports
 
just wondering how many guys here have a 1980 Leather Sport. there were only 2500 made. 1000 in brilliant black, 1000 in aurora white, and 500 in solar gold. i've got one in solar gold. i think LongDuck has one in brilliant black, and i think ther are a couple other solar golds here.

i have a solar gold with less than 40k

40K? I have seen only another FB with about 40K. but that one was in the junkyard. too bad.

If I found LE's in a junk yard I'd be snagging up the rims like nothing else. Get me a pretty penny or two for those suckers.

None of them still had wheels :( I pulled a badge off the B-Pillar of one though, just to add to the collection.

Ive also seen the "X" edition or something like that in a junk yard, I have one of those badges somewhere as well.

7SpringsMisfit 11-17-06 01:52 PM

i hope that if you ever cfind your car, its in one piece. thanks for the pm. not gonna sell, as my LS is my baby :) i'll keep an eye out for you in trying to find another LS. there is another guy in a town over from me who also has a Solar Gold LS. its in pretty nice shape.

7SpringsMisfit 02-06-07 09:34 AM

i almost got a black one on ebay. it went for 450 or something like that. all original but there was a dent in the front fender.

mazdaverx713b 02-10-07 10:03 AM

sounds like a good deal for $450. dents are easy to fix. what color was it?

mazdaverx713b 02-25-08 10:18 AM

just throwing this back out there to see if we have any more LS owners that are in the woodwork

gsl-se addict 02-25-08 10:26 AM

therx7guy666 has one. His is aurora white.

DwArF 02-25-08 11:08 AM

I seen an LE in the junkyard with the Rims and Centercaps but I didn't want to buy them and get stuck if I couldn't sell them.

mazdaverx713b 02-25-08 06:18 PM

i'd be interested in them!!!!

You'll never get stuck with LE wheels.... 79 or 83, both are very desireable....

Just send some old seats to a custom shop and get them to slap some leather on em'.

kymber39845 02-26-08 12:04 PM

Won't make it a Leather Sport....

mazdaverx713b 02-26-08 01:52 PM

i agree with you kymber. the LS is a very neat car. i really need to get out and drive mine more this summer. it looks good in the garage but even better out on the road. here's one pic that was saved before the old hard drive seemed to stop working:

I think I have a leather sport, but mine is a 79 SA. I have a all black 'leather' interior and those burberry black leather seats, if you guys saw my other posts. But I'm not absolutely sure since I don't have those waffle rims and the car is silver
