It would be real easy to fake this or clone one with the 93 police speedo
and recover the seats at an upholstery shop. Re-upholstery in vinyl is a
$1000 less than leather.
OTOH if this is indeed an un-molested original, with some documentation, a
very interesting find indeed. There are some strange things out there...
..
FWIW There is a stone stock 95ATX Opal Frost about 3 miles from here with 6K
original miles on it. Never titled, never will be, but not for sale either.
Still had the factory window sticker last spring.
..
A friend of mine has a 95SLO SE. Has the SHO buckets, with bolsters and
split leather & cloth. Definately leather 'cause its falling apart with age.
Similar cloth pattern to a SHO. Except that it's green cloth/leather.
