It looks like Ive got my work cut out for me here. I hate when people who have no idea how
To actually make a repair attempt it.

Progress Thread “Rising from Ashes 13” 84 SVO build thread
- Thread starter 95steedamustang

I had an '84 SVO and found it to be a very well put together car for 1984. Hot Rod Garage did a 2.3 Turbo Coupe build utilizing the stock motor and upgraded turbo/header/cam and injectors that made EcoBoost horsepower levels. Personally, I'd go that route and keep it "original"'ish. Pete Kotzur (San Antonio machine shop legend) had one that ran in the 12's back in the mid-90's.
I have had similar thoughts. May even do one stockish build and buy another more stripped out SVO and do the 2.3T. Not decided anything yet.
More corner light restoring. All these have been sanded down with 400/600/800 and cleared.
One is NOS. The other is used but looks to have seen very little use.

Same here. Most of this build so far has really just been about finding and restoring SVO parts. Lights are always at the top of everyones list too.

That is very true, the issue today is they are so hard to find and when you do, people want $500 for a pair of corner lights that are barely salvageable.
I purchased a string buff from Eastwood years ago and used their plastic polish with it on some lens..... Amazing how nice they came out... Like new....
Just the standard bodywork and some highbuild 2k
Blown apart and all in on the bodywork.
For whatever reason, I'm thinking of a straight or slant 6 with couple gnarly turbos hanging off of each side.
