I've found: $1.25, rusty set of keys, a working Ronson lighter, and a ton of safety glass. The windows on the drivers side say 83 and 84 in the corners so I'm guessing it was broken into twice when it was newer.
Booger'd all the floor holes and threw POR15 all over it then some knockoff Dynamat. Washed all interior plastics in the sink and carpets in the washing machine.
Ignore the dirty glovebox..
Before/after of carpet:
It's definitely quieter now. And less drafty. Also I got the RR window working by spamming the button a bunch of times, but it's making a slight grinding noise when it moves. It worked fine before the D24 exploded so I'm thinking the window motor got water inside when it was sitting or something.
I really like how comfortable this car is. It's the only 240 I've had with an absolutely perfect drivers seat. Too bad they aren't heated..
I'm gonna swap in the locker axle from the wagon, probably with poly bushings, then I've got some plans for the motor. I have a used head that I'm gonna go through, maybe get it milled, and pop in the IPD turbo cam I got. Also I need another 19t or something like that and some injectors to go with it. I'm thinking of trying 90s Ford 7.5L injectors. Bout 30 bucks a pop on Rockauto.
