My car is a 74, and I believe that all of the screens are the same until the 964, so it would work fine on your SC. I had the same issue with insurance that they would only replace like for like. Now...

Only suggestion I have is before you modify the bumpers put on the wheels at the width you are going to use and make sure you can get full lock in either direction. I built my whole car with spacers...
