A quick update on the SS80 : the car has undergone a LOT of mechanical work in March/April. All of this work was done at Ranjith Auto Care in Koramangala (RAC has excellent equipment and Ranjith and his team are simply outstanding at working on Maruti/Suzuki cars). And Ranjith himself is a wizard at tuning the carbs of these cars (these days his team does most of the work but we were lucky to have him tune our car's carb and his midas touch is just out of the world !)
In addition, a) the entire engine bay was cleaned (courtesy detailed cleaning steps provided by @LeoShashi).. and while not a patch on how clean his cars' bays are, the engine bay of the SS80 is super clean now, and b) the entire interior carpets removed, cleaned and installed back.
The car is pretty much done now, and a joy to drive. It's in as stock a condition as one can make a 39 year old car (the only thing remaining is to install the two silver/black strips on the rear of the car, which we will do soon).
Red/Blue strip painted over, and emblems installed in correct positions
Cleaned up engine bay - everything is stock and mostly true to original
Nut and bolt (with red lever) for spare wheel
Original seat covers (RR), in excellent condition
