hello ye mudders -
been lurking and shopping for my first LC for the last few months; have looked at 60-, 80-, and 100-series cruisers and ultimately decided that the 80 series was the best fit for my needs and my wallet.
found a 40th anniversary edition on craigslist in phoenix (i'm in flagstaff, about 2 hours and 5500 elevation ft north) that was in decent shape, had been well-taken care of, and for a fair price.
drove it home this morning.
i'm having trouble linking to pix in the new google+ set-up (so dumb that they no longer provide the easy link info that was available in picasa), so...
here's the album with pics of exterior and my first mod... easy install of the primo escape gear seat covers, made in prescott, az by the fine folks at equipt.
very impressive product; well-designed -- notice from the back how they eliminate the sad sack stock map holders -- and even comes in a nifty escape gear duffle bag. thx, paul!
also want to give a shout out to PBRStreetgang and Hltoppr for helping me in my search for my first cruiser -- youse guys iz awezome!
