ps, yes the wiring was really that bad, but it worked :P

yes and no.

 

i now own a 2 door

 

and I'm importing the car whole...

 

probably gonna register that, not sure.

 

its quad headlight, 2 door for 700 US.

 

forms are in at customs, so I'm waiting on approval to import, then i just need to pay for shipping and we are in action.

 

praying the dollar comes back up, hit 85 wednesday, back to 82 now ;)

 

I'm gonna buy about 4 grands worth of tools for work and put them in the car, shipping company will secure and write an inventory for them all, and i may bring some tyres and whatever else, to make the shipping worth while.

 

then once the car is here i will decide on either using that and doing the steering conversion, or leaving it LHD hehe, or cutting it up and using the shell i was going to originally.

 

little steps....

 

Fix the 2 door, your other car will be screwed from sitting outside.

it wasnt that bad when i saw it, but yeah, i probably will.

 

might put the other one back together and sell it as a hack or something.

 

2 door one side, 4 door the other ;)

There was a small run of Volvo 242's built like that...

 

Apparently there was surplus of one side and not enough of the other.... So the driver's side was a coupe sedan, passenger side normal 4 door :dance:

hiii

 

its been a while, but i now officially own a genuine 2 door.

 

finally finalised the import and picked it up monday.

 

body isnt too bad, no rust, few dents but we can fix them. BHG etc but meh

 

ill get some pics up soon.

 

the plan is to fix the motor and rego it stock standard LHD and then modify it from there.

 

still unsure whether i am going to convert to RHD or just go rack and pinion LHD, steering RHD gets in the way of the exhaust.

 

so yeah, expect to see some updates in the coming weeks :)

Convert it. You've got a shell there that you can use for parts.

Could always finish the 2 door project yourself and sell it as a track shell.

i could finish the two door project and sell it blue plated, as i have the letter of approval to do it :)

Ok.

Sell it to me. Actually don't. Sell it to me in 3 months. :glare:

blz how much you paying for it?

 

it will not get done for a little while yet...

 

 

 

 

 

 

theres those pics you have been waiting for, maybe if i get my christmas shopping done in time ill change the oil and drain the water and see if i can get it to start BHG and all, see what it does. can't make it too much worse I'm sure :P

PHOTOSHOOOOPED :lolcry:

 

I'm coming round for a circle jerk.

You just jealous'd the f**k out of the e7 crowd.

 

Is the foot print the same?

 

I have never liked 2 doors with seats in the back but this..... sex.

 

And quads too or were those yours?

nope came with quads :D

 

it wont have back seats, there will be a jungle of roll cage back there. going welded 6 point road registered I'm hoping :D

 

if it was photoshopped, it wouldnt be such blurry photos :P

 

chassis is identical, just the body is different
