New to the scene, new to the forum...1991 President, 95,000km's

Hey guys,

I just picked up a 1991 nissan president for a fun daily/meet car. Grabbed it about 20 minutes away from me, in near-perfect condition for $2300 with a full tank of premium!

I'll upload some pics when I get a chance and figure it out (lol), but it's pretty much stock. It'll be getting some new wheels on it soon, and I'm going to be custom building some curtains for it, as well as crafting my own tables for the thing. The way I see it, JP stuff is real cool, but I'd rather build something with my own hands, with my own car as the model - better fit, and probably a better finished product. I'm a lifelong woodworker and leatherworker, so I'll be getting some cushions made up as well.

Everything will be mahogany and a similar veg-tanned leather, and I've got a few tricks up my sleeve on the leather side. I've been cruising this forum for a couple of years, and just got lucky enough to find one in great shape at a great price. It's one of the most comfortable cars I've cruised in, and it should keep me busy while I'm building my 383 chevy.

Cheers! I'll throw up some imgur links, because even though Ive been on forums for years I never did get the embedded pics thing. Everybody, please excuse the janky plate-disguising techniques!

Thanks! It's really one of the cleanest 25 year old cars I've ever seen
