Just Picked up 92 SC400
92, i guess its called Silver Spruce(green metalic) SC400.
Got lucky with Grey Interior.
Drivers door was unable to open. Outside and inside handle will not open. sad thing is........
i had to cut the perfect condition drivers door panel to get the door open. It seems the locking mechanism box, the Rod that goes to the outside handle broke, as well as something else in there preventing the inner door handle to be able to function.
i'm sadd...now i have to locate a new drivers panel, or get mine repaired at a interior repair shop. other things...previous owner busted up the upper door panels on both sides.
interior is ok, seats are ripped. paint is ok, scratches left and right.
but otherwise a good buy. I'll try to post pics if i can!

it was impossible to get the panel open without breaking it more than cutting a hole in it like i did.
plus i had to get my hand to the junction box that holds the locking mechanism which is towards the rear of the door.
i spent hours thinking of everything, but this was my last resort. now i have to spend time and money looking for a new lock box mechanism and a good door panel.
