I always love to kid duh Jimmer. The car is great and he bought it just days before I would have from Duffy. The interior color is black deluxe (I think) maybe its standard???
The color is Sunstorm Yellow and its dry clean ride for sure. I think he'd sell it if the number was right.

Brew,
I may be taking it to Mecum this October in Chicago. I had a guy come over and give me an idea as what to expect at auction ( Saturday prime time ). For the record Mike Sparks was close on his guess last year as what he felt the car was worth.

Sorry to say mecum Chicago is not a great venue to get good money for a car. I think the Dallas auction is a much better place.

The two best Mecum venues to sell your car would be Kissimmee in January, and Indy in May. The most serious money buyers are at these two events as they pull in a much more "national" audience than the regional ones. Kissimmee has the most bidders of all their auctions.

When was the last time an SD Formula went through an auction? What did it sell for...or bid to?

I think at that price you want to put some eyes on it!

Without OEM, one would need to verify its a 4 speed too amongst other things....

Real 4 speed makes a difference. How do you verify without engine? Build sheet must be intact.

To each his own! Coolest possible combo in my opinion. But I guess that is why they offer choices...

Yep, I would say the Beige cloth is the best choice for a Brewster Green car. That one is absolutely gorgeous! It's a member's car, BTW.
