You don't see many.
I just picked up a Black '84. Unfortunately the knuckle head PO pulled off the vinyl and trim. Looks like a hearse now. It was going to be a parts rig, but it's actually pretty complete.

Looks like my black 90 sagging suspension too until i fixed it lol, cept mine has the cordovan interior.. I always hated black as a car color until i got my gw. Id lose the white wall tires, it doesnt look good on a black GW imo.

Your wood color looks different then mine
