Im working on it , today the bumpers where up. My dad would paint them for me if i would clean out the garage and paint the garage afterwards.. i made a bit of a mess of everything during my time there as you can see in the photo's

So there all set and tomorrow they will be painted.. notice how we filled up the front bumper to make it fit a 86' car.. we took a bit of 86 bumper and made it one with the SE kit.. never though it would be so much work .. it will be so worth it though

Used polyester to make it whole.. something i did not use for my radio front i just painted today.. its no where near clean but im tired with it for now..

Specs on the carputer? Also, could you post a shot of the screen from the passenger side?

White Rice is going to be sweet when she's finished!
 
Nice work!

Thanks man!, im doing the best with the time and money i got :)

What steeing wheel is that and how do I get one???

The steeing wheel is called LeMan and was an original wheel for the 960 if i recall right.. how to get one? well the owner where i got it from bought it from the dealer 9 years ago for 450 euro's just to give a idea.
 
Meh today the enigine desiced to leak all the oil out of it from just about all the rubbers on the B230 part.. its all mixed with gasoline..
Basicly i need to pull the engine and replace all the sealing ect. never done this before , not sure i want to .. :raincloud:
 
Why not find a B230FT from a 940 hook it up to a 240 wiringloom from a late 240 and get in to run on LH2.4.... You can use your head and ditch the block...... Might be easier and cheaper. Change the sensors LH2.4 uses while you've got the engine on a stand and I'm pretty sure you'll be happy. Just my 2cents.
Or buy a new car or even donorcar.
