True... and it's begging me for a paint job right now too :-/ (lots of chips,
drivers side is faded badly)... though it's probably low mileage for an 80 ;)
(I have 133k miles or so on it now.. translates into somewhere between
7000-8000 miles a year I guess.. had 100k when I got it last year though).
On a side note... do you have any idea where I can find the plastic door
panels? The one on the drivers side is faded badly, and has some nicks in it
from the window handle scraping it. I looked in JC Whitney's catalog, but
theirs don't have the chrome trim, or the padded armrest. Has the sliding
type locks under the armrest... I've checked most of the junkyards here while
looking for other parts, and all theirs are either the wrong colour or melted
(on the two I've seen that had fires.. no parts I could use from either of
them).
