Hello all I own a 87' 740. I am new to the board and this is my first "brick" I have a few questions. Thanks in advance.

1. I noticed in the car that it does not have a battery strap down. I have the plastic tray in the bottom where the battery sits and a long bar with a hole at the top. I went to the junkyard and none of the 740s had anything either just the bar. Is this normal or am I missing some pieces.

2. My wiper arms are not rotating properly. I can see the hex screws moving but the wiper arms do not move properly. Is this a known issue? Does anyone know how to fix it?

3. Does anyone know where I can get brake light lenses that arent cracked?

4. Are there any sites that offer any kind of aftermarket performance parts?

5. Anyone know any tricks or tips to get more power or mileage?

6. How hard is a turbo conversion and would you recommend it?
