+1 x 10 = Awesome 242. I like the updated front conversion you did to it, now you need a Gr. A. spoiler. Any peformance mods?

Yes, it's an all black interior taken out of a later model 240.

Although, these pictures were taken in spring when it was detailed and not driven around in Washington for a year :( . Thankfully I am picking up a daily driver in the next few weeks, then the 242 will be my weekend warrior.
