I finally had a chance to see why just about everyone is crazy about SD T/A's- yesterday I met a guy named Gregg who owned a 63k 4-speed Brewster green SD T/A survivor. I went over to his home to buy parts, and next to his parts pile in the garage was the car. He told me that the car had be touched up in different spots, but you could still see the paint was original, as was the custom Parchment interior with cloth inserts. It was also interesting to see a T/A with such low options (heater only, manual windows) in combination with the custom interior.
Gregg was not only very kind enough to show me the car, but also invited me to sit in it and start it up- the first time I had ever started an SD T/A. I've met SD T/A owners in the past weren't so pleasant when it came to anyone being near their car, but this gentleman redeemed any of them with his hospitality and kindness. I'm sure he would have taken me for a ride if not for his girlfriend waiting for him.
