Awesome!! Does it still have matching engine? These LE's will have to skyrocket in price some day.

Not sure, Shoe would have to check.

I'm going to pick it up in a few weeks from Shoe. Once I get it home it will be stored for a while until and hopefully next year start a restoration.

Nice save. You can do the resto right and break even or maybe even make a few bucks with all the stuff you've collected! Pretty rare these days.

I'm having a flashback to the creamsicle you found years ago that nearly disintegrated when you tried to move it...remember that one? Just crumbled like a dry leaf.

Yep I remember that one. That was back in 2003. I know this one is in MUCH better condition than the last one. For those that are wondering I found a 74LE here in town by mistake. I got it for $12.50, yes $12.50

Here are the links to that story:

That might have been the start of the madness for you..."I'll just get these two cars...they're only $25 FOR BOTH...and then I'll stop. I'm not gonna make a habit of this let me just tell ya. No sir, not me. Uh uh noooooooo way." (IMG:style_emoticons/default/av-943.gif) That's what we all say ain't it?

We'll at least you get the chance to bring an LE back from the grave. That one you just bought was on death row!

I can't believe that the factory cannot put the production build date and the MSRP on the COA.....simple stuff to lookup.

No kidding (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif)
Even when they did put a date on them, they didn't get it right.

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/smilie_pokal.gif) So 5 states, 1200 miles and 2 days later I am back home. THANK YOU to Donald for dinner Friday night & breakfast today, and yes we did eat some of the cookies on the way home. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/chowtime.gif)

Had a great trip, my cousin was able to come with me. We took a little detour on the way down to pick up a Miata for someone and also made a stop at this place I have seen before with over 600 classics from 1900's- 1980's

A few pics of my favorite ones.

I can answer #2... that BB in the background is "the Diva", and belongs to Donald.
