Default My current 242 renovation

Here is a 1982 242 I recently picked up in Corvallis, Oregon from the 2nd owner. Completely stock, 168K miles on it. B21F, M46/OD, PS, AC and factory fogs. It is a non-sunroof body. The car has been sitting for 5 years. After draining the tank and putting in a few gallons of fresh gas, it started up after a bit of cranking. It runs great. The front caliper pistons are stuck from sitting so long. I should have it road worthy in the next few days. Here are some pics of it right after I picked it up and washed it at the local car wash on the way home. The second set of pics were taken after I had the car detailed by a detail shop I use for all my cars. The body on this 82 is all original and rust free. There are a few small dings in it, that's it. It was a great find.
