        To everyone that commented, thanks guys, I'm interested just as much as you all are and I'm building the thing. Can't wait to see how all of this turns out.

        Sorted some parts today to see what I had, a bunch of miscellaneous things like a clutch, air filter, fan, a couple of intake manifolds, a steering wheel, valve cover, head-liner, sun visors, too many little bits and pieces for the interior.







        ^The bottom right of this last picture, there are some of the M-Motorsport/2002 Turbo stripes, came with the car, definitely thinking about using them, very tempted for sure!

        Ohhh yeah and these weird looking round taillights... Might as well throw out all reason to make it like the 1975 square taillight car it is; the widebody doesn't help that case, so she's being converted to a Roundie. Adding a little bit more of that classic touch to the car.


        I don't have any pictures of a test fit today and sadly I think the car will be put into the trailer tomorrow for the winter. It's going into the trailer because there is a current project in the shop... this thing that my dad and I are building.


        But, I may have a final little hoorah tomorrow for you all if I figure out how to get the Americanized bumper off and clamp up the rear widebody.

                  Sweet! This is going to look so rad all wide and stuff. Are you going for a whole "period correct" theme thing? Because that would be so awesome.

                        As a 2002 owner with squares converted to roundies ^^^ This. But I'd be interested in the squares when you have no use for them

                        Can't wait for that widebody to be installed

                          If I sell the wheels separately then they'll probably go with them. I'll pm you if otherwise though!

                          I've always wanted a Roundie, and the opportunity came up to be able to convert, so I will take full advantage of something I've always wanted. But I'll definitely see how the car looks before anything is finalized.

                          Haven't been on point at all lately with photos, but it's going to be that much wider?

                          I'll take that for sure!


                          Still working on that rear bumper so I can mount up the rear flares, used some serious rust remover to try and loosen up the bolts. Wish me luck...

                            I concur that the roundie tails are classier than the box tails, although I mean no disrespect to any box tail fans.

                                I have too many ideas to write down at the moment. Definitely thinking about keeping the classic motorsports trend going with this car.
