    For Sale '82 Seca Turbo $1400

    I stand corrected, 6500 manufactured in 1982 and 1500 in 1983. Clearly the look was way ahead of its time. JB

    Shane, I can't help but think that's a 1992 not 1982. I'm local and noticed it on Craigslist too. Good luck with the the sale. JB

    What tires are you running and why?

    +1 on the shinkos. I put the exact same on my Seca 550. Cost was the driver and I've had no problems with them. JB

    Really simple headlight question

    Thanks guys. I was trying to diagnose what I thought was an electrical problem. In the end it was me just being a knucklehead! JB

    Really simple headlight question

    I have a 1982 XJ 550 Seca. Should my headlight come on when I turn the key to run before I press the starter button?

    Something for all the "noobs"

    I've owned my 82 550 Seca for two years and I feel confident traveling 70mph on the highway due to the guru's on this site and especially Chacal.
