Replacement 1981 for 82 ???

["DAVID MORRISON" <drmcross@xxxxxxx>]

Thanks for the interest. 

 

Both the 1981 and 1982 FS are EFI, which I have enjoyed working on and look forward to continuing.  While it runs great, and certainly is more rare, the 1982 is over 100K and a life-time WI vehicle (ie getting rusty, crummy chrome).  The 1981 has half the miles, and it comes down to economics (much as I enjoy the center console on the FS.)  I'll list the FS for sale on OIC classifieds, I guess.

 

Have to admit, though, you're giving me second thoughts!

I am in process of purchasing a 1981 (Nightwatch blue with white leather) to
replace my 1982 FS.


Hmm....
I am intrigued but unable to get past the obvious question:  Why replace the
'82?  Was it totaled or something?  Are there really significant differences
between these years?  I ask this question as someone who can, and just may,
at the drop of a hat, list the rather small differences between the 57 and
the 58 which, of course, make one exceedingly better than the other, in an
infinitesimal kind of way?
