I think C15 is the seat belt code.

Do you know what the code is for the deluxe seatbelt package?

Seems odd that those belts are the only black thing on the interior.

I got to sit in this car last time I was at LMC, it's a very nice car. I did tell our salesperson that having his name attached to it meant nothing to me. It had some fluid leaks from sitting so long.

I agree with Alan he is getting low on mopars and really needs to get rid of that Superbird he has had that for ever.

I can't believe they finally sold that 68 Charger resto-mod :scared: that took for ever.....The Superbird appears to be sold now too

I'm not a fan of resto-mods that big wheels and modern embellishments. Had it just been a stock appearing car with a worked over modern engine and modern suspension it would have sold faster in my opinion.

Have you taken a look at this car? what is your opinion on it? 210k USD http://www.legendarymotorcar.com/site2/listing/1970-dodge-challenger-rt-2/

I still love that odd ball HEMI Cuda upstairs with the brown interior, auto, low rear gear. They won't ever sell it but I think it's one of the oddly optioned cars that draw me in.

My uncle follows them pretty closely since he bought his mustang there.

Unless Peter recently bought that Hemi Cuda it belongs to a fellow out west that had LMC restore it for him.

I could never understand the story behind that deal....I always felt the owner never paid for the work in full, so Peter kept the car, but Peter told me once he was just simply storing it for the owner :dunno: .....That was ten years ago... :smilielol:

The guy I was talking to there who let me sit in this car said it cost way more than the car is worth to restore and that is how they owned it. It's ugly, has options that make no sense and I want it.

His collections of Shelby Cobra's is second to none.

I take it your pretty tight with him Alan? you should sell him some mopars!

I've known Peter for over 20 years. I have sold him one Cuda in the past and I always give him first crack at all the cars I restore to sell. We laugh, because we both know he's going to low ball me and I'm not going to sell it to him....I just like showing off my work to him. They're located only about 10 mins away from me. Peter is a great guy to talk too :worshippy
