My 244 D24TIC

[mihkel]

Thought I'll show you my 244.

The car was bought in California (I even have the maintenance history up to 40k miles!) by a finn in 1982, he drove it a few years and sent it back to Finland. It was first registered in Estonia in 2002 and I got the car in the beginning of 2011. Unfortunately they use quite a lot salt on our roads in the winter so the cars tend to rust pretty easily as you can see, especially the older ones.

The car started out with a D24 engine and M46 gearbox. In the summer of 2012 I decided to throw a turbo and a IC in it and wow, what a difference it made!

Changed the interior for a black leather one, basically bought a spares car just for the dashboard as mine was cracked badly and the door panels were rotten. Swapped the whole interior, don't have any pictures unfortunately.
