Fellas:
OK, so I picked up a Bertone for few hundred $$. B28 with a BW55. Body is, impressively enough, rust free.I really don't like the B28 that's in there. It sucks up some gas and idles really rough. I finally decided that I'll put a Red block in there plus convert it also to an M46. The car is more of a project car and not a daily driver. I would like to be able to depend on the car if I do decide to take it for a ride though, and I don't think the B28 is up to that challenge. Just my opinion.
Now, the donor car: 1992 244 wagon, B230/AW71 at the junkyard. 160k miles on the odometer. The whole front end in great shape. Engine is pretty clean. While I was looking at it, I pulled the IPD swaybars. Cost me $40 for the set. OK, I think I digressed. My question is: what do I need to pull from the donor car to do the transplant? Is it gonna be painfully hard to marry the electrical/electronic stuff? This is the first and probably the only time I'll attempt such a feat so, please treat me as a complete idiot when it comes to details. I won't be offended. Heck, the more detailed, the better. I've been reading up about the conversion in the archives, but I'm still kind-a-confused. BTW, the M46 is on hand. A spare for my 1983 GL. Thanks a whole bunch in advance Bricksters.
