My new project SA22C

Just picked up this 79 roller out of a junker in Michigan for a few hundred bucks ....... very little rust for a Michigan car. I plan on building a n/a 13B PP track day toy out of it, maybe a Group C style car if i can find a body kit from AUS.

There is no mirror but it looks like there are two holes and a outline of where one used to be.

Another SA gets a second (maybe...5th, 6th?) life. Good luck. Keep us updated...

Hard to see the mirror holes when I'm using my phone. Still curious about the build date. Likely 139k miles as the odometer may have rolled over. It's a good find either way. I'm on the hunt for something like this fir my oldest son. He's decided that he wants into the rotary life and wants to restore a 7 with me. He wants an SA or FB. Good find man!
