| Was yarding and came across a 92 Chevy Custom Cruiser. Only had 125k on it and it was in pretty darn good shape but what was so surprising was the interior. It has got to be one of the cleanest unblemished I have come across. The back seats still had thick factory plastic on them! There was even plastic hanging below the front seats still so I imagine it was on many years after first ownership. I just think it is awesome that an interior can look that factory new after 20 years! You'll see some greasy fingerprints in back....that was me as I took the lower tailgate hinge.

| ^^^They go for about $100 on ebay.
I found a set of dark maple red cloth RM seats in a 35000 mile car, and the arm rest is like new. It is so pristine that you could eat out of it. There is a set of blue cloth RM seats in a 37000 mile car which is soon to see the crusher. Not quite as pristine, but in excellent condition. | |

| If that has a grey cloth seat, you HAVE to nab it. I know toward the end of 92, they started to use blue vinyl with cloth interior. (found a late 92 in blue cloth with a vinyl 3rd seat ant the JY).
Grey cloth interior is uber rare in A wagon and only the OCC had cloth 3rd row seating....

I may be able to get the armrest. The door panel is gone, and it is a sedan, so no cargo cover. | |

| Armrest would help - if you run across a good blue 91/92/93 front driver door panel, please pull it for me... Seems like things always fall apart when I seem to find one for a good price... (or they are already broken somewhere). | |

Have you tried my repair technique on cracked door panels? If you catch them when the crack is fairly small, you can make them last a long time. Just remember to close your doors with the pull strap, and do not slam them. I have repaired a number of door panels. Some of them were severly damaged. The repair, when done properly is almost imvisible even on exposed areas. All it requires is some MEK, and scrap plastic from another door (it does not even have to be the same color). | |

| Not happening on mine - the crack is roughly 6 inches, going four directions and right where the switch control panel meets the door, so the cracks are spreading into 3 dimensions... lol
Oh, the fold down pull loop on the door also is half cracked out - bad repair by the prior owner. | |

| I have repaired cracks that were half the length of the door. They are as strong as the original panel or better. You can still see the line from the crack, but the panel is strong. It would make the door panel usable until you find a really nice one.
Another option is to get a good lower panel in any color, paint it to match with SEM paint, and then swap your top panel to it. I have some nice lower panels in other colors. You could even paint the entire panel, and just swap the carpet from your old door.
I have a blue surround with the pull bar in excellent condition for a driver's side door. PM me if you are interested. | |
