Hello from Chicago, IL. Just bought an 81 Eagle SX/4.  It's awesome and needs some work. Lurking on this forum for a couple years. Super excited to participate. Many thanks in advance for any future help and info. :)

Recently bought from eBay if memory serves me. I think I saw it on there. Wish the bottom of the doors was painted correctly. Looks like a nice find though!

Yes, your memory is correct.  Ebay buy from just south of Atlanta. Bought it from a guy who owns a body shop. He had done some work on the body and the paint.

I, too, find the lower paint job a bit annoying. Looking to paint the bumpers and lower areas black like most SX4s sometime this summer.
