I had an '81 with the same color stickers as your, but it was charcoal gray. I bought it out of Texas in 1988, with 42k on the odometer. The things was MINT and fully loaded. All I did was replace all the rubbers with new stuff and threw a fresh paintjob on it. Nine days after the bodyshop I was in the middle of a 4 car accident and it got totalled. I was out of work from that accident for almost 6 months because of injuries. That is still one of my cars that I miss the most (my '89 Formula tops that list. that one got stolen)

My '81 had every option including the 350 instead of the 305. Once I got it I put headers and a cam into it, along with getting a the tranny reworked so it would take more abuse. That car even had the factory slapstick shifter. I haven't seen to many of those.
