Once in the garage it was time to examine it closer.
The interior needs a clean-up.
The engine sounded good but it was hard to drive since the upper trailer arm on the right side was bent.
I installed a new upper arm and while I was at it a new lower one as well. The lower arm seemed ok but I hade bought one beforehand just in case. The harness had been torn as well as you can see in the picture.
The radiator support had seen better days, I noticed that it had welded with a MIG/MAG. I´m not sure who had tried to do this but I´m pretty sure he was disappointed with his welding skills. It would have saved him a lot of aggrevation if he had noticed that the support is made out of aluminum...
A "new" door and right headlight had been sent with the car, it also needed a driver side door sill, driver side mirror, front harness, and various other small parts.
Here it is "naked"
