Well I got it with 56k miles on Dec 29th 2003 ( birthday present from the wife! ) it has 60K and some change. We drove it from Wilkes Barre, PA back to central Illinois, that was the first 1000 miles. The other 3K have slowly piled up. I think I ran 2 tanks of gas through it last year. It has yet to fire in 2007. Its tucked away in the garage. Don't worry nothing is touching it but the car cover on the trunk.

looks great. I love these cars and have been looking for one cheap to restore if I can find one. Looks like you stole a gem from my neck of the wood (albeit before I knew what they were)

Keep that one looking shiny, and if your wife should decide to sell.....

Real sharp looking man. Up the street from my shop someone has a red T-type that looks pretty nice.

Ya actually I do, I found this on Lesabret.com

15,938 Lesabre T-types were made over the three years; 4123 in '87, 6426 in '88, and 5389 in '89.

In '86 there was a Lesabre Grand National, 117 were built.

Not many!

Roughly the same production as the SSEi. About 5000 per year.

hhhmm let me think. NO I have toyed with selling the black one, and my wife gets mad at me. So I just keep it tucked away in the garage for a later date.

The white one I could let go of.... for the right money....

There'* a black one near me that I've seen for YEARS. Always parked in the driveway. Quite literally RARELY see it move, but it does. Sunday driver I assume. I've often thought of stopping by and asking about it.
