Default Volvo 142 Chopped and sectioned in Norway.

For a couple of weeks ago, I bought this 142, which was modified some years ago in Sweden.
There is a lot of work, which has been done on this car, the body is sectioned 4 inches, and the roof is chopped about the same.
There was no engine present, but it is prepared for a B230, and I have bought a donor car, a -83 244, with B23 and M47 gearbox, with mechanical wire for the speedo.
The interior is a bit strange, everything is lower than usual, and the back seat is missing, just an aluminium plating with 5 gigantic holes for loudspeakers.

Other odd solution is the brake servo, which is located in the baggage compartment....makes the engine compartment a bit cleaner though.

The car has a flip-front, everything tips forward, and if I have to do bigger things, the front removes easily.....
I am looking for two door panels, from a 242, later models, maybe some of You have two spare ???

Lots of regards from Norway.....
