Turbo is next in line. I am very close to finish the fabrication. Need fiberglass hood and can send it for body work. Hopefully can have it painted by the end of this year.

Few hours of work today. Sprayed some Fluid Film inside doors and rockers to slow down eventual rust issues. Installed heat shrink on all wiring harness tabs, started routing wiring harness and installed few random parts. Not a bad day.

Thanks for taking the time to share photos. My mind boggles at the amount of work that is going in to this. Surely it'll be the nicest Martini out there when done.

Very nice indeed.

Thank you guys !
Not the first car that I am restoring. Details always could be better, but 924 is still cheap car but we all like them a lot. So why not doing it right? It really takes more time than money. Most of the parts is still fairly cheap ( if you can find them,lol), some powder coating and paint is not that expensive. I definitely have an advantage of working in my well equipped shop, that helps a lot !

Small progress today. Refinished headlight mounting brackets and reassembled freshly plated mechanism.
