Talking Lets see some pics of SA's

My buddy's got a bone stock SA, deliver pics of your pride.

He doesn't want to go all stock, most likely remove the trim, fill in the body, etc.

I'd like to see what other's 79 SA's look like.

my 1980 Leather Sport. 61K original miles. the only parts that have been replaced are the tires, plugs, wires, front brake pads, clutch, and air filter. oil and coolant i am not counting because they get changed at the beginning of every summer. i only put about 1K or less on the car per year. i'll be doing the diff oil, fuel filter, and rear wheel bearings this spring:

How'd you do that?

I was thinking of making the antenna switch be the on switch for the deck since my buddy doesnt have a automatic antenna when he got it and I can't see that theres any accesory switch on the ignition.

wire the ACC to one of the 20amp ACC fuses in the fuse box. if you look on the fuse box cover it will say BATT ACC and IGN next to the fuse diagram. make sure it is an ACC one like the A/C fuse.
