The car door bumper edge guard is a sign of a careful owner.
Good find !

I like the color.
Let us know it the color grows on you after a season of driving.

Regarding the new head studs, do it right. Use ARP

BTW, your SC is freaking GORGEOUS!

Pros on this forum have mentioned problems with ARP head studs loosening up. I have used the ARP rod bolts with good success, but not the studs, so this is just second hand. There are many options so I would research this.

Interior color
Hi all,
I have been looking high and low to find the actual interior color. It is leather and brown. But I can't find a code to confirm a shade. Anyway, can any of the brain trust confirm the shade of brown I have or color code?
I would like to purchase some dye to freshen up the seats.
Thanks much,

Gary

Supertec head studs. I’m more than pleased after 2 rebuilds... They will not break!

Brown on brown is so 1981. I had a Platinum Metallic targa (also totaled)...such a nice color in person. Congrats!

A second recommendation for the Supertecs. Not crazy expensive like the ARP studs and jewel-like quality.

Beautiful car.
