Re: IML: Gary Goers Interiors?

[Jason Wulf <jrwulf@xxxxxxxxx>]

Sorry I don't have any information for you Tony, only a question...


I'm trying right now to restore my '84 Lebaron convertable, 
("Stephen," after the digital voice that sounds just like Mr. Hawking
himself) and am having a bear of a time finding anything for the
interior.  Would Gary have anything for something so 'new,' or do you
know anywhere that might?

Regards and Good Luck,
-Jason
