Went to the yard as I always do on the weekends to find treasure. A 1990 244DL with a brand new D/S TS lens $10, 4 Virgo (Turbo) rims with soild tires, perfect caps, and all lugs, but I did manage to lose one, $150. Also has factory Cruise Control, there is no way the CC unit from the 85 244 will fit in my 87, 2 completly different set-ups.
As far as the rims go though they had heavy brake dust coating 2 of the tires, Super Heavy brake dust. After cleaning they didnt come out that perfect. Still pretty dark compared to the others. Thinking these came from a differnt car, because the tire brands dont match with the front to the backs.
Also when changing over the rims I removed the small single stud thats runs between the lugs. Does that serve a purpose other than lining up the tire??? <----Stupid Question I'm Sure... The donor can had these removed as well.
Since I cannot use the CC unit that I got does anybody wanna swap something for it? It is the complete CC unit from a 1985 244GL. Control box, servo, switch controls, brake and throttle hardware too. I will just throw it on Ebay in case somebody does wanna trade.
Thanx
