Got a little bit done as the big day approaches. insides of the doors, engine compartment, hatch, and the front bumper.
While the bumpers are only temporary until I can find some viggen ones.. I did want them looking as best as I could. The front just needed some minor sanding around the corners to get them smooth again, the rear is vexing me,
This car was definatly parked using the brail method. the entire rear bumper is covered in little 1 centremetre round 'pockmarks" that require a LOT of sanding to get out. Two of them actually deeply gouged the plastic and puntured it. I do not know what this car was parked against, but it was parked there repeatedly.
Neat car. Nice to see an old Swede get some attention.
she's getting even more attention. Every girl loves new shoes.
picked up a set of BBS RK IIs for her. Optional on the 9-5, they should look really good on the old NG 900.
what is a shame, if I wanted to strip and sell some parts (maybe the leather interior) I could probably get this car in on the 200X competition.
Car: $900
Transmission $300
Rims with tyres: $600
Paint: $100
Brakes: $200
Viggen Clutch: $350
and a couple of other odds and ends that equal about $200
drop the rims and your in. looking cool doesn't automaticly make you go faster you know.
I have been wanting a set of those wheels for my car, I just have not been able to find any close to me that have been priced right. That is a good score for $300.
