I've got one on my 80. The trick is the fine print, it doesn't cover alignment after parts replacement. So I just smear a little dirt and grease on new parts when I take it in. The toe in can be set at home if you have a leval concrete slab and some simple tools. (bricks and a tape measure) This is from the 1980 service manual. (proceedure, not the bricks) With the car on a leval surface set an object next to the front edge of each rim. Measure the distance on each side and add togeather. Roll the car foward by hand till the back edge of the rim is in the same position to the object. Measure each side and add. The front measurement should be 1/32 less than the back. I have found some "professional" settings off by as much as 1/8 and have been doing this for years. I expect and get 50 to 70,000 highway miles from a set of tires. Just make sure you are on a level hard surface, a blacktop driveway or a street won't work.
