you sellin a block? what kind and whats the price? im lookin for one...

[blu92in99]

Justin, i put the fog surrounds from your grille into mine because mine was a nos piece from volvo in perfect shape. BAM, mint GT grille.That's how I built the one that went onto my car too. Found a GT grille that was busted up, salvaged the bezels, and introduced them to a nice mint 78-80 grille. ;-) Shoddy pic, but you can see where on mine I took (cut) the slash off and removed the mounting tabs for the slash from the grille, and put my turbo badge back on under the left foglamp.

...and hey, I thought the reflective bumper tape for the fronts was supposed to be white? :-P

[Lord_Athlon]

They are, but i dig the red more than one could imagine.

[Lord_Athlon]

Part of me wishes i had the small squares. Also, on those autopal lenses, do you have to aim them left and right really far for agood beam pattern?

[Brickster151]

Looks great man! GT front ends ftw.

PS - did that place you found the red tape at happen to stock anymore? The stuff you gave me back in March was'nt enough :(

Part of me wishes i had the small squares. Also, on those autopal lenses, do you have to aim them left and right really far for agood beam pattern?You shouldn't have to. They're 'standard' LHD e-code pattern, so aim them as you would any headlamp. Well, follow Daniel Stern's 'how-to' and you'll be fine. the adjustment screws may be pretty maxed out on those buckets I sent you though, as my 242 had been smacked in the LF at some point before I got it and the repairs were good, but not that good so I'd adjusted the headlamps as much as possible with the body the way it was. :roll: (it's all better now though :cool: )

I miss my small square e-codes. :-( I'd probably revert from the GrpA front end back to the GT nose if I could find another set of them in LHD that were in good shape and at the right price.

[Lord_Athlon]

Pat, they are all out of it, but trust me, im looking for some more. That stuff rocked.
