Converting early style 440 to late style 400

You may need quite some bits to convert it to the post-1993 style.

Of course you'll need a new bonnet, new headlights, direction indicators, new bumpers and such..

But you may also need new front fenders (not sure if the indicators are on the same depth) and some internal parts to mount everything onto.

Not sure if the bumper mounts are on the same location or not.

Your best option would be to find a written-off post-1993 440/460 (rear or major side-damage), buy it cheap as a wreck and use that to swap all the parts you need. At least that way you should have everything available.

Bye, Arno.
