I pulled the trigger
 

After six months of daily scouring listings, making phone calls, and looking at cars, I found the one that fit the bill.

It's an 83 with about 144k miles. I'm the fourth owner. Records back to the 2nd owner. I've had it out a few times in the past week, and I'm thrilled with it.

Thanks to all of you who have responded to my inquiries and provided guidance. By the time I found this one I felt like I could make a reasonably uninformed decision, as opposed to a totally ignorant decision. Here's a pic:

Cheers,

super nice...is it Chiffon White w/ tobacco interior? My favorite combination.

Very Nice - Way to go!

Thanks! Hell yeah, it's going to be a great summer! Kid, it is indeed Chiffon and brown--colors I can live with for a while, for sure.

'83 SC Coupe? Great choice!

That colour scheme, while perhaps not in the mainstream of desirability, actually look pretty good if in good repair.

Nice find and enjoy your adventure. :)

awesome, awesome colour..
enjoy the ride!

Nice!!

I love chiffon white.

I love the colour combination. Don't rush to make any changes. Apart from the desire to keep the originality you might find that it grows from "I can live with for a while" to "I wouldn't change it at all".

I used to own a Pewter Metallic 82SC with brown interior. At first I hated the interior colour but after a while I really loved it. Jeez I miss that car.....

Your car looks nice. Enjoy!!

Congratulation man. Enjoy every minute of it, these are truely amazing cars.

Good for you. Congrats on a nice car. Everyone here will probably tell you.... now go and drive it like you stole it. hehe!

Congrats - you will love it!

Congrats!

Nice choice. Enjoy.

I think that's a GREAT color combo, best of luck with her!

Sweet, congrats.

Don't listen to any of your buddies and do track days. It will only end up with you butchering a nice car.......ask me how I know.

Good Luck

You are living the dream now!

Excellent! LOVE chiffon white.

Looks awesome - the only thing I would change would be to remove those "shark fin" stone guards. Just my opinion.
