Do you know by chance where that wheel hub adapter was purchased from? I'm searching for one to mount my nardi in my 76. The last wheel hub adapter I used I was able to barley get the nut on..

Its a Volvo R-Sport adapter (momo) with a momo to Nardi adapter ring. I think the adapter ring was like 20 bucks on Amazon or ebay. Its less than an inch thick.

Summer 2024 bump -

I finally got the headers and exhuast on the car. It sounds pretty good.
- - Credit goes to elmford1 for the much appreciated help.
I'm currently finishing cleaning up the wiring behind the dash, and I added some extra details.

Good luck on the fresh start! Hope to see more tinkering with your 242 -Namgyal

Well spring is here in Arkansas, but there's still too much snow and salt in NY to take the car out and get it on a truck. It's killing me. The previous owner sent me a couple of pics of the car when he purchased it outside of Tucson Arizona. I didn't know it was all blue then.. I'm glad it was a lousy paint job. He said he flicked the blue off on the spot above the windshield when he went to see it and the seller was mad!

Just think how he'd react now!

When I went to first see my 242 from the seller I pointed out the big dent on the passenger quarter panel.. The owner then bangs on it so hard and goes, “yeah that’s a dent alright” I was like bruh..
