Yes, it will (sort of) fit. you will have to do work to the inner guards to clear the shock mounts. I don't think there is much else that would be a problem. However, this swap will is illegal, as the body does not meet the ADR's the car was constructed to meet, so if the car is used on road you might have some issues with the law if you were pulled over for a defect and had to have the car inspected.

Should be ok as it is a 1985 car with upgraded 1998 components. |
