Subject: ascMcLaren Alteration/Modifacation Pkg. on COUPE

Body:
I have been in contact with a former assembly-line worker at what was
ascMcLaren on Autry Avenue in Livonia, Michigan during the 1985-1986
build. This man was on the line with the ascMcLarens, not the Buick
Gran National GNX cars. He sent me a copy of all the alterations and
modifacations done to these COUPES by both FoMoCo AND ascMclaren. I
will herewith post one section every day or two (or three) ~

May 4th Sunday = Interior

* Genuine Leather Wrapped Steering Wheel - SVO Style (AM)
* Genuine Leather Wrapped Trasnsmission Shift Lever (AM)
* Re-Trimmed Interior Seat Material that features Piping that is
Color Matched to the Interior, replacing the normal Vermillion-Red
Piping with matched Grey Piping, so as NOT to clash with the
Popsicle Orange Exterior Decals/Logos & Striping. (F)
* ascMcLaren Logo Front Floor Mats and rear mats without logo. (AM)
* 140 MPH Speedometer Replacing the normal 85 MPH unit (AM)
* Built-In Whistler Spectrum-II Superhetrodyne Remote Integral Radar

Cassette Tape Player with Special Kenwood Speakers located in the

* Fila {Brand} Custom Air Horn (AM)
* Air Conditioning made Standard Equipment (F)
* Instrument Panel LIMITED EDITION Plaque with sequence-of-build at
ascMcLaren number. (AM) (1986 only - EXCLUDING EuroCoupe)

>> (AM) means this alteration was performed by ascMcLaren.

Dearborn Assembly Plant.

Coming: - Exterior / Chassis / Engine

This is all documented on ascMcLaren inter-office correspondence, as
sent to me, very recently!
