The seats look great,defineately rare in that nice of condition.Mine are really nice,a little behind your's though.Do you have any mods planned for it,or are you keeping it stock,which isn't a bad thing either.

If there's one thing everyone here has learned about Turbo Coupes -- It's that they're not cheap to maintain.  Little stuff can and will go wrong.  Everyone here with a TC has decided that it's worth it and it looks like you have to.  So welcome! ((AWESOME TC))
