I agree, I would never pay to have it done, but I'm not sure I'd rip it out.

I've added a couple of pics to the first post for when the ebay link expires.

I'd buy it, and have a conversation piece. I bought the whole "new" interior for $500, so how easy it would be to replace it, and keep the gator seats just for kicks? Very easy.

And as far as "barfing"? Different strokes for different folks. I could live with the gator just fine.
Or you could swap the interior as you say, and part out the 'gator bits for good dollars if the right buyer came along to cover some of the 8k.

For all we know, the buyer is a JF member laying low

Or watch out in the "New Member" section for a few days.
