To make it short and sweet unlike the VS one, ill just give some basics.
This is how i bought it. Mind you it had a stock rear bar on it. The white ones i custom made.
The car 90% completed.
First mode. VS Berlina seats in it.
I managed to blow the box.. $547 later i got it home with no box... Bunch of rip off they were.
Just finished doing the grille on it.
Where not to mount your amp if you cant in the boot.
Finished the front bar and gave it some new headlights and indicators. As well as some shinny 17" x 8" wheels.
Then lowered it on SL i think it was.
The best sticker i could think of to get made:
"You cant kill a 202" Everyone gets told..
Time for the rebuild.
After that stage there is 50000 photos of the engine build.
Specs:
80tho oversize flattop pistons with moly rings. Shaved and ported head with some over sized valves. Alloy roller rockers. What they call a stage 2 cam. New bearings throughout. Rebuilt and jetted Webber something a rather, came of a XF foulcoon. Pacemaker extractors to a straight through 2.5. Rebuilt box, standard converter. I think im missing some stuff, going off memory.
Photo of the UHF antenna, but im showing you this is because the VS in the background is the one i built and am currently driving now.
Then someone with a towbar reverses into me...
Replaced everything that was bent and broken, except the bonnet.
And thats the short story. Sold it to a mate in the condition of the last pic for $900 whos going to rebuild it for power cruise.
