Yeah i was wondering what kind of dash can i replace it with i have a whole bunch of them but i know you cannot just swap over any cluster.

yeah i never seen the headliner with those lightspots before but it does look like a factory roof to me. Any pointers on how to clean the headliner btw?
 
I also find it quiet amusing that your seats say "ass"..... totally need to get that re-stiched to say "chunga"
 
And another crappycellphone picture of my -new- radio :)

Nope got the whole kit but swapping the fenders and all took enough time.
Besides i need J2 to adjust the damper end piece so it will fit the turbo location exhaust
 
Starting to look into converting to LPG, already ordered all the parts now its a matter of some time and less cold.
I found another rare piece where i can build the switch into. this was the extra line of switches addon. never actually seen one before before i bought this one years ago

Replaced the wires with some 940 wires, the old ones where not even flexible anymore :lol:
Also got some new spark plugs. Not yet driven the car yet but it does run smoother.

Had 2 hours to kill, decided to start looking into fitting the switch.
Eventually dugg a old speaker bracket out of my parts stack and started dremeling.
Now its time for some beer so i'll leave it at this for now
