My pleasure!.
I hope they are happy with The King, it's be the most reliable vehicle I've every owed. It wasn't a restore project but I did keep up. I just wish we'd done all the items on my wish list before he headed out to his new home. Nothing pressing just stuff I'd like seen done..
Interesting the drive was just a local guy picking up to take to yard, for loading onto long haul Auto transport. That sure made scheduling easier. I understand you gave Adam "@sammybones" a great price on the Den To GA haul, sweet!

Is it me or does that radiator look rough?
Its not you. That thing is a time bomb. At least the truck is clean though.

They are all time bombs at this age, and most look much lighter in color. This one actually doesn't look bad in person, color appears darker no micro cracks visible. Regardless, I just wait until they leak, which I've only had one do. It was on a 00LX which had 276K miles.
Being alert for the sweet smell of coolant, and checking coolant level fervently is so important with our ageing fleet.
Wow, what an amazing example of an almost 20 year old vehicle. Truly a testament to your care and pride in your fleet of 100s. I haven't chimed in on many of your posts, but I truly appreciate all of the details and pictures you share for everyone to learn from. Thanks for being such a great asset to this board and for loving 100s so much

Thank you, that was very nice of you to say.
So true! My sentiments exactly. I have read and re-read so many of your posts. The knowledge we gain is so valuable. Thank you @2001LC

I just heard from @sammybones that lumbar isn't working. I don't recall it ever giving much moment. Can't remember last time I even tried to adjust. Anyone know if the 98-02 gave much moment?
I really don't know if we have a motor or pump with inflatable bag?
I'm thinking first step would be to see if can hear or feel the motor or pump working. If not check to see if power getting to it.
If getting power, pulling seat back would be next step.
Anyone know how to remove seat back without breaking tabs of hard plastic back?
I'm guessing this is wire to lumbar motor, anyone know for sure?

So if #11 is a pump it must be air bag.
I did find some pictures of a back for 06, suppose it's same for 01. Looks like trick would be to release upper clips then pull up.
Would be good time to restring netting pouch.

okay, does anyone know the trick for releasing the top clips, I have a squeaky spring in the back that is driving me nuts.

First of all I want to thank Paul for a great transaction. He was a pleasure to deal with from start to finish. The King (on the left) is just as promised. I highly recommend buying from him. I originally wanted to find and 04 or 05 LX as this will be my wife’s DD. However, I have been following Paul’s threads and knew I wanted one of his.
I’ll try and trouble shoot the lumbar. I’m gonna have to upgrade the stereo as well unfortunately, my wife wants Bluetooth and better speakers. I can’t blame her, the audio in Hundy’s suck.
