Wanted, Converse 240 Ford v8 kit wanted. I have started the long delayed restoration of my much loved 1983 240 Turbo 2 door. Some will cringe, but as much as I loved this car, it just never had enough power. Since I am a Ford retiree and get parts at a good discount, it will be a LOT cheaper to go the Ford V8 route than try to pump up the Volvo B21Ft to anywhere near the performance of the Ford motor. I live in Dearborn, too, and mustangs are everywhere around here for cheap. I have bought a nearly rust free body to use for hard to find (at least in the USA) 2 door body parts. Willing to deal on B21FT motor/trans, not run in 7 years, but Turbo had less than 5K on when stored, 150K on motor, ran good, and excess parts from 84 parts car with nice blue interior.
