Hi, I've put some photos and a very short text about my first, 1982 with NA engine. Would like to get your comments!

The Corvette rear taillights are a first for me to see - very interesting. I prefer the larger alluminum rims over the gloss black stock 8-spoke rims. Nice car.

I'd like to hear more about your dash swap. And maybe some more pics of it.

Looks nice.

no disrespect serz.

but YO Joe I think you will regret it if you do this conversion. I am down with conversions for i have one that i am doing right now but, your messing with the day to day look of the 924. I think you might regret it. now with that being said. I'll root you on all the way man.. I could use the the wheels he took off though. That would give me 2 kick ass sets of wheel.

I got rid of original door handles and rear lights because they are ugly and not-original. VW golf door handles must dye, the later ones with Porsche written on them may stay... I used those from SAAB 9x, but you can choose everything starting with Audi 80 shaved-style to the new Honda Accord...

and rear lights, as on Ford granada, Russian Moskvich or other cars of these years are also without soul or design-idea. The ones I used looks better for me, and I'm planning installing rear zender spoiler I have, to give even more old-scholl muscle car look...

And I would definitelly use other wheels, if I would have ones (and the biggest problem-tyres) R16-9" wide or even R15-9" or 10" wide, chromed... Unfortunatelly you can't buy these where I live for money, so I found 205/65 R14 and put on rear original's, staying with 185/55 r14 on front. Rear ones looks massive
