Nice, this will be awesome if you fully restore the interior with the factory plaid.

not all accidents show up on carfax and i'm pretty sure it came out of the factory with the airbag system.

I have had 2 Celebration Cars. One of each color. Also, both cars I had were automatics. My satin black car was one of the last ones. The seats were done in a tweed instead of the plaid. The door panels were in the plaid though. I will find the pic of both together to post later.
