I was hoping to put the older 160 nose on my 245 partly because I like having a unique car and partly just because I love that rover looking front end. BUt I like the 240 too much to part with it. To me, that nose seemed to be much more well finished. I was never happy with the 240 headlamp moldings and grill fittings. They just never seemed to be as well intigrated as a car of it's quality should have. For now I have a 242 GT nose on my car so it is a unique wagon but that early 160 nose was just outright beautiful. In my opinion anyway. They're still great cars and I'm on my seventh now so I certainly can't complain but I really wanted that look. In one responce however, I realized I was about to bite off much more than I could chew. So I guess it's going to remain a 245GT.

Thanks
Richard
