pantera928 Posted January 2, 2022 Report Share Posted January 2, 2022 Were any of the door panels on this series of Avantis ever leather like the seats or always vinyl? The armrest looks like it might be leather but the door panel, not so much. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you have the build sheet and if so, does it mention leather for the door panels? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill Hanlon Posted January 3, 2022 Report Share Posted January 3, 2022 (edited) Yes on recaro seats. The door panel is leather including arm rest. I do not have a build sheet. Edited January 3, 2022 by Bill Hanlon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bill Hanlon Posted January 4, 2022 Report Share Posted January 4, 2022 Yes it had a blown 305 when I bought it. Replaced it with a crate 350. I wish that I had more funds at that time and replaced the 305 with an LS. Unfortunately I need to go through the controller (wife) to get funds. Next couple of years project is to tighten up on the steering and rebuild the front end. It still has plenty of get up and go! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bill Hanlon Posted January 5, 2022 Report Share Posted January 5, 2022 I think I need to replace the steering box gear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
